Title: Wordpress installation problem
Post by: complearning123 on April 07, 2016, 11:27:33 PM

Hi everyone, I uploaded wordpress to my host server and when I try and log in to admin panel I get this:  Warning: require_once(/home/a2570573/public_html/wp-load.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/a2570573/public_html/wp-admin/install.php on line 36

Can anyone help me?  THanks.

Probably you are having problem to establish the database connection, so go and check the wp-configuration file if it is configured properly like database name, username, password etc.
If this is not your issue it might be that during file transfer with your ftp software you lost the connection to the server and some of the files where not uploaded.
Cheers.

Wordpress won't load if you haven't establihed an ACTIVE domain name with it.  In other words if you just tried to create a wordpress site without having registered the domain name you would have to change the database files to the IP address instead of the unregistered domain name.

Some detail is needed. You have web site? And  the server company does not provide the tools needed WordPress?
I have used WordPress for years and anytime I have to change to another provider, I make sure they already have all the stuff I need to run WordPress. They should say so in the advertising.
And yes. you must have a domain.

Hi,
The easiest thing you can do is to contact your web hosting provider and tell them the problem you are experiencing and they will help you fix it.
Hope that helps.

how to install wordpress in win.7.

As far as I know - and, I'm quite sure about this-, you don't install WordPress on your computer, you go to wordpress.com or a web hosting service that supports WordPress and develop your pages there.

Sunnyy,
If you wan to use WordPress on your PC you need to understand that WordPress is normally installed on a Web Site, which would be running Linux or almost anything other than Windows 7.

Some, like myself, install a private copy of WordPress on a a PC with an emulator  to test out some things before uploading to the web  site.

maybe a dumb question but.. is the wp-load.php file actually present in the directory?
