Errors when running install.php

  • Here are the errors I get. Called service provider and verified that my database name, username and password are all entered correctly in config.php file. Do I need to change ‘localhost’ to something else? Any ideas?

    Warning: main(../../wordpress.1/wp-config.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/scottz/public_html/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php on line 9

    Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘../../wordpress.1/wp-config.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /home/scottz/public_html/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php on line 9

    That helped, thanks. For some reason the install.php was looking for the folder wordpress.1, which was the folder the zip file was originally unpacked to, but I had renamed it wordpress. I’m not sure why the links were not updated automatically.

    If I want to change the folder name from wordpress.1 to wordpress, is there a way to get the install.php file to update its paths to the new path without manually entering the new folder name in multiple places?

    you shouldn’t need to enter a directory name anywhere.. the installation files use relative paths to look for files.
