If the configuration works find on the root, and the server has no issues with the blog, then how am i getting these errors when i move everything to a new folder called wp?

Thanks for the help, up until this point.
I’ll try something new tomorrow, I guess….

If I try upgrade instead of install:

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 mysql33.secureserver.net .

creating a table in my sql panel:

Error

SQL-query :

CREATE TABLE soigne1 (

) COMMENT = ‘testingit’

PHP version is highest.
That is my install error above.
..hhmmmm

the full scoop

I have this error:
wp-config.php file. I need this before we can get started. Need more help? We got it. You can create a wp-config.php file through a web interface, but this doesn’t work for all server setups. The safest way is to manually create the file.”); require_once(‘../wp-config.php’); require_once(‘./upgrade-functions.php’); $guessurl = str_replace(‘/wp-admin/install.php?step=2’, ”, ‘https://’ . $_SERVER[‘HTTP_HOST’] . dirname($_SERVER[‘PHP_SELF’]) ); if (isset($_GET[‘step’])) $step = $_GET[‘step’]; else $step = 0; ?>

I have setup a server called
smuckersjam
username smuckersjam
pw rahrah
host isn’t localhost based on testing on the root, so i cut and pasted teh exact location of the server (not an issue there)

Okay, I’ve read the documentation twice. This is exactly what I am doing. How do I go about troubleshooting?

Sorry,
I’m not expecting a quick reply….
I’ve just been trying stuff for many weeks now
it’s a personality think to get the “stomp feet” expression

*stomps feet*

This is driving me nuts….
Can someone just give me, specific instructions to follow
i’m a techie girl
… but eesh, im thinking i’ll just learn php and sql – make my own blog’n application
*flips a coin*

to help clarify,
if i happen to have the files off the root
i end up with
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 DB_HOST.

Yes, I understand that I am capable of doing this, BUT THEN I will run into the problem of not being able to log into the admin of the blog.
I’m thinking it’s a server problem? I tried running it from /WP/ before, but I couldn’t get my SQL server functionable with the blog, unless it was on the root. Is there anything I need to modify that I missed?

I’m sorry, perhaps I’m a bit blonde and lost for once :S

Yes….
I’m trying to do the exact opposite though…
have all of WP run in another spot (not the main page or directory / root)
I want the blog to be a site place to visit, not the dominating feature
Do you know how to install it in another location?
When I do, I have server problems for installation , etc etc
It can fully be installed in the root directory, but then that creates an issue with my main website page…..eeeee
any help would be appreciated

I’m reading your comments on root directory here, but I don’t see any visible answer to my own problems….
Do any of you know how to install WP NOT on the root directory?
I have a main website and I want to make the blog a side place to visit, not the full monty front page ?? ehehe
