2.7 upgrade troubles

Sure, just delete the wordpress directory and delete your database (or just drop the tables) then start over.

If you have a Cpanel account, this may help:

Ok thanks… I don’t have cPanel, though.

Now… I need to configure the config.php file again… Naming the database name etc… Well, I’m a real noob in this… Where can I find that stuff again? Or do I make another one? I’m with One.com for hosting if that my assist you…

Thanks In Advance!

If you haven’t deleted the old database you can use the same one. Just use the same database name, db username, and db password, then for the table prefix use something like wp2_

That will use your old database and just set-up new tables.

Ok, thanks so far again… Now, maybe a very stupid question to ask someone else… ?? But what’s my password? I mean… Is it the same as I enter the admin of wordpress like before? I’ve found my database name and username, so that’s something already! ?? I regret I didn’t finished my website earlier… It’s really like starting all over again.

Or maybe… Is it the information I got from One.com for the mySQL?

It’s the password for your database user. It would be in your old config.php is you saved a copy.

Oh yes! I got it (so far)! You’re very kind to help me out!

Well, still one thing… I tried to install it again, but it says I already had it installed and that I should remove the tables in the database… I’ll google for that in the meanwhile, but if you would like to explain that would be very nice!

Ok.. I’m in phpMyAdmin… I see my database and its tables… Just delete them and start the install.php again?

Yes, just select the tables and drop them.

Allright! We’re back in business! ?? Thanks Figaro! Best wishes for 2009! ?? Wish me a nice and working blog! ?? ?? Cheers!
