Thread: wordpress troubles

This is a desperate appeal! I cannot seem to get the BV support staff to answer my questions in a way that I understand.
I have a few unsolved issues regarding installation of wordpress......

We seem to have several issues that have not been solved.

Right now I have two faulty installations of wordpress.

1.The first faulty installation I do not seem to be able to remove manually as suggested. (Could not update registration data. Please remove manually the directory /home/eerxoktz/.fantasticodata/WordPress/vocalcentral.com|C:\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\Documents and Settings\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\owner\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\My Documents\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\BlueVoda\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\B logs!)

2.The second faulty installation gives me an error message.

3. You suggested that I reinstall wordpress in a sub folder but have not explained how to do this.

All I want to do is start blogging! Surely you and/or your support team can help.

To install wordpress in a sub directory all i did was when prompted for the install location i typed www.yourdomain.com/blog and it installed it fine.

i do however have some questions about customising the look and feel of the themes.

You might understand more about proper installation procedures (and issues) after reading this thread.
Pay close attention to the step about the "little box" to create a directory...

Thank you for your reply to my appeal - the thread supplied is very informative. I have successfully removed all previous installations. However, now I cannot seem to find a valid directory to reinstall wordpress. I have tried http://mydomain.com/blog http://mydomain.com/wordpress and even http:www.mydomain.com/blog with no success. What can I do to create the correct sub directory to proceed?
