  • If your site is being redirected to /wp-admin/install.php, this could mean your wp-config.php file is missing.

    Can you please confirm if there’s a wp-config.php file (note: not wp-config-sample.php) at the root of your domain?

    So out of curiosity, I clicked the CONTINUE button on the installer, and met the last step of the installation wizard (bypassing where database config details are asked for)… meaning there’s a config file with the correct database info.

    Curiously, the USERNAME field is already pre-filled with the text “User(s) already exists.”

    Looks like there’s more going on here, perhaps database corruption or the website has been hacked?

    It most likely been hacked. but still havent figured out how to clear the database and make the content available.
