The probelm is because of awardspace. Do the steps shown beautifully at https://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/site-url/ and you will be fine.

Thank you. The problem is solved.
It was because of an error in the database – I dunno how that happened. The solution is found here https://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/site-url/

I am sorry – I do not understand.
I have not changed the code for version 2.1.3 yet – except to put in the database details in wp-config.php. Therefore, I have not specified a URL anywhere.
Just to clarify, the installation went as easily as expected and I have an admin password generated by wordpress. The URL examples quoted are those generated by wordpess when I look at the code generated to display https://subdomain.domain.com/wp-login.php
