ANyone have any ideas? I’m completely stuck at this point!

Help! (please)

MichaelH,

Thanks for the script, but no dice. When I try to execute that script I continue to get the dreaded:

It doesn’t look like you’ve installed WP yet. Try running install.php.

This is after a “clean slate” install on a new server. I copied over all my 1.5.2 files, restored the 1.5.2 database on the new server, and validated that everything works. I then deleted the files suggested in the upgrade instructions, ran the upgrade script, and was bamboozled.

Thanks for any more suggestions! I am stuck!

Gents,

I am having the same problem (minus the downgrade back to 1.5.2). I follwed the upgrade steps on the codex, and get the “WP is not installed” message.

I’ve checked the following:

* wp_config.php is OK
* commented the “hide_errors” line; nothing appears other than the “not installed” message
* put in ringmasters “die…” line. I get “::” returned
* checked my patandmeg_user_meta table and my admin user has a value of 10.

I am stuck. Any suggestions??? I moved my working 1.5.2 blog to a test server and all was working, then immediately after the 2.0 upgrade my “not installed” problem started.

I think my main problem is my brain can’t compute when it comes to design. Some people have the ability to look a blank husk of html and see colors, fonts and graphics all working merrily together. I can see numbers dance on a P&L, and create process models that are a thing of beauty, but brain no speakey designy.
I think a solid weekend an a fresh bottle of makers mark might just do the trick! Thanks for the comments both of you. So far, no comments on my main concern, the content :-(. Either I’m such a marvelous writer I have rendered everyone speechless, or my writing draws a non-designer-esque flatline on the brains of my potential audience.
