    Hi,

    I have added a new database to a web host and added a user to it through cPanel, I got the correct database name, user & password, and the host is correct. I also changed the 3 unique keys in the config.php

    I have also found that you might have to change permissions, so i followed all of the recommendations on the codex.

    I have put the wordpress directory in abc.co.uk/demo/resources/wordpress

    but when I go to the correct directory to install: abc.co.uk/demo/resources/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php
    I get a 500 internal server error.

    I have tried looking through the codex for help, but no luck,

    can anyone help me with this?

    I noticed somewhere that you need a .access file with the index.php, can you add a new .access if it is not in the same directory, if so how and how to create a new one???

    I have checked the error logs and I will post here I have changed a few things to ~***, home001, yoursite

    the iresources was a mistype by me.

    I see it is trying to say in earlier logs that the files do not exist but looking on my FTP program, they are there in the directory structure
    abc.co.uk/demo/resources/wordpress

    I hope you guys can put me on the right path

    thanks, it was localhost that caused me the problem, it was capitalised.
