I can’t log in, why?!?

@divrom – yes you can.
At the time I wrote the guide – when I had this issue – I didn’t know about the dropdown function.
Sunshine (here on the forums) pointed that out to me – and at some point I’ll get round to updating the guide to reflect that. In the meantime though, the end result is the same ??

I’m having a somewhat similar problem. I’ve been using Firefox to get my WP installation going, and it keeps displaying massive amounts of code along with a section at the bottom which let me click through the steps for setup. Each install step has looked like this, below, but hasn’t had any “error” messages, not like this one.
$this->col_info as $col ) { $new_array[$i] = $col->{$info_type}; $i++; } return $new_array; } else { return
[more raw code showing]
Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/venialsi/www/www/wp-includes/wp-db.php:284) in /home/venialsi/www/www/wp-login.php on line 188
[repeated similar warnings]
And most frustratingly, although it’s given me a user name and password, every time I enter it on the login page, it tells me that the password field is blank. This is the fifth time I’m trying to install WP and get off MovableType, but I’m a few minutes away from giving up. Any ideas or suggestions about what I can/should do?
Thanks!

Sorry about the double-post. Didn’t mean for that to happen. My apologies.

Do this:
PHP Info
Paste this into a new Notepad / BBEdit file
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
Save as ‘info.php’
Upload to server. Visit in your browser (www.example.com/info.php)
That will give you info about your php version – what does it say ?
(and I’ll remove the extra post ?? )

It’s version 4.3.9. In sheer frustration, I’ve deleted the entire installation and am going to try to upload and run it one more time. In any case, I’m sure that I shouldn’t be seeing code when I run the install.php file in wp-admin. Any idea why that’s happening?
And thank you for the removal. Much appreciated ??
