Hi does anyone have any suggestions on how to solves this, as I am a complete novice!

Hi Maerk

Warning: main(./wp-blog-header.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/rodkirby/public_html/blog/index.php on line 4

‘Warning: main(./wp-blog-header.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/rodkirby/public_html/blog/index.php on line 4

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required ‘./wp-blog-header.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /home/rodkirby/public_html/blog/index.php on line 4′

okay changed back to ‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’);

still no difference!

Is it something to do with my database that i have set up -I have set up username and password with all privilages.

I have now put

define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘catalyst2.com’);

but still not working!

moshu,

I am now having partial success, I have downloaded the wordpress zip again, upoloaded, and changed the wp.config.sample file with my database name and password.
(which I think I have done correctly!)

https://www.rodkirby.co.uk/blog/wp-admin/install.php

Now when I i try the above link it says the following

“Error establishing a database connection
This either means that the username and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect or we can’t contact the database server at localhost. This could mean your host’s database server is down.

Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
Are you sure that you have typed the correct hostname?”

my wp-config.php file now looks like this:
<?php
// ** MySQL settings ** //
define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘database1’); // The name of the database
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘XXX’); // Your MySQL username
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘XXXX’); // …and password
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘locolhost’); // 99% chance you won’t need to change this value

I have all the files from the wordpress folder that I have uploaded, but no I dont have 3(sub)folders in it.

Apologies for being so green to this!

I have gone into the blog folder on my domain

and get the following error page if this helps

“Warning: main(../wp-config.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/rodkirby/public_html/blog/admin.php on line 5

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required ‘../wp-config.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /home/rodkirby/public_html/blog/admin.php on line 5

but not sure what this means – does this mean that I have not set up the blog directory properly?

“I have changed the wp.my-config.sample.php to wp.my.config.php”

is a typo error, my apologies, it is wp.config.php.

I have also tried it in IE without the extra slash
mydomain.co.uk/blog/my-config/install.php

but just get a page not available!

DesignPastor, I have now changed the

define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘catalyst2.com’);

——–
but this still not made any difference – any thoughts or ideas, i am completely new to this i am afraid!!!
