bump!

Correct!

https://www.domain.com == wordpress
https://www.domain.com/blog == wordpress

To do that means you REMOVE the static stuff and you install wordpress in that location.

I did remove the static portion of my site and left my /blog folder intact and created a new folder named index.php

I’m trying to do a new install with new e-mail login ect..

This is what I get when I try to complete the install by following the famous five minute install link:

ERROR: %s’), $error); ?>

/>

‘.__(‘Already Installed’).’

‘.__(‘You appear to have already installed WordPress. To reinstall please clear your old database tables first.’).’
‘);} switch($step) { case 0: case 1: // in case people are directly linking to this display_header(); ?>

ReadMe documentation at your leisure. Otherwise, just fill in the information below and you’ll be on your way to using the most extendable and powerful personal publishing platform in the world.’), ‘../readme.html’); ?>

error) ) wp_die($wpdb->error->get_error_message()); display_header(); // Fill in the data we gathered $weblog_title = isset($_POST[‘weblog_title’]) ? stripslashes($_POST[‘weblog_title’]) : ”; $admin_email = isset($_POST[‘admin_email’]) ? stripslashes($_POST[‘admin_email’]) : ”; $public = isset($_POST[‘blog_public’]) ? (int) $_POST[‘blog_public’] : 0; // check e-mail address $error = false; if (empty($admin_email)) { // TODO: poka-yoke display_setup_form( __(‘you must provide an e-mail address.’) ); $error = true; } else if (!is_email($admin_email)) { // TODO: poka-yoke display_setup_form( __(‘that isn’t a valid e-mail address. E-mail addresses look like: [email protected]’) ); $error = true; } if ( $error === false ) { $wpdb->show_errors(); $result = wp_install($weblog_title, ‘admin’, $admin_email, $public); extract($result, EXTR_SKIP); ?>

admin
‘. $password .’
‘; } echo ‘

‘. $password_message .’
‘; ?>

My apologies Mike, for the duplicate post. Thank you for your assistance Numeeja!

nobody?

anybody???

Thanks everyone, I’ll bury my head in the sand for a bit and research more.

So do I have to create a sub folder in my sql and direct it to my webroot? I’m confused! Will that overide my existing website?
