Okay, this problem is resolved now. I have no idea how, but…

Yesterday, it wasn’t working. Today, I check my FTP settings and see that they are okay. Then, I thought, “What the heck…I’ll just give it a shot again.” And whatta ya’ know? It works. Good things come to those who wait, eh?

Thanks, MichaelH, for your help.

Thanks for the feedback, MichaelH. I checked my FTP settings, and it is set to upload PHP files in ASCII mode.

Anything else?

If not, how should I go about reinstalling? Can I just do a quick reinstall or do I need my host to clear the database (I don’t have access to do it myself)?

Okay. Another problem…When I click on the WordPress import option, the page (below the header and navigation bar) is blank.

Can anyone help on this one? Much appreciated.

Okay. Instead of reinstalling, I tried removing the wp-admin/import files (e.g. wordpress.php, mt.php, blogger.php) and reuploading them. When I first tried it, I removed all nine, added all nine, then tried. No fix.

Then, I just removed all nine and uploaded the wordpress.php (since that’s the only one I need). Voila! It works. So, I checked to see which file was the problem and found that the following 3 files prevent the import page options from showing up:

• blogger.php
• dotclear.php
• greymatter.php

Thanks for your help.

Re: File permissions. They are okay. Now, I’ll try to reinstall.

However, when I go to my wp-admin/install.php, it’s just a blank page.

Any wisdom for me?

Re: Browser refresh. Yes, did that.

Re: Nine .php files. Yes, there are nine.

Will check the file permissions. If that doesn’t resolve the issue, I’ll reinstall WP 2.2.

I’ll post my results.
