    Running the script help needed PLEASE

    Hi all,

    I hope you can help me here and I am totally new to this so I'd really appreciate it if you could keep it simple

    I am having problems running the script for the installer. When I type in the address followed by install command like in the manual I get this message:-

    The requested URL /install/install.php was not found on this server.
    Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
    Apache/2.2.10 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.10 OpenSSL/0.9.8b mod_auth_passthrough/2.1 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 Server at thebaglounge.com Port 80

    I believe I have changed the infomation in the config.php.new file as instructed, so any suggestions as to why I can't get this to work

    TIA
    Frustrated LA

    P.S I did try searching but couldn't find anything

    Well that error is saying that it can't find the file /install/install.php I would suggest you ensure you have uploaded all the files in the upload/ directory.

      Can you see the file from within your FTP client? If so, what's the URL?

        thank you your reply, I'm sorry to sound like a total idiot but I really feel like one right now lol.

        I downloaded smartFTP as the manual said that's what it used for example after that I used that to upload the "upload" file and I put it in the file titled public_html is that correct? I can see it in smartFTP I can't see a URL unless that is the numbers followed by my username and file location?

        I've logged into cpanel and and using the file manager I can see the files inside the public_html file

        Any suggestions? Thank you for patience I know this must be a really basic problem for most of you
