redirect to wp-admin/install.php

  • I know this is common problem but none of the solutions seem to work. I’ve checked the database and it seems ok. What else can cause this?

  • did you run a repair on the wp_options table?
    this is usually a sign of it crashing

    Actually it’s not the database, its the setup i have. I installed wordpress to it’s own directory and am accessing it from outside the directory. The problems happen as soon as i include the wordpress header.
    require('blog/wp-blog-header.php');

    you left something out – like this
    require('./blog/wp-blog-header.php');

    thanks but it’s not an error with the path or nothing would happen with wordpress at all, you’d get a php error.

    I have used the exact same method for another site and have checked setting, permissions and code, everything is identical yet one works and the other doesn’t

    Ok, the issue seems to be that it’s still looking for files in the root even though it’s set up in a directory and should be looking there. Is this a bug?
