Well, it does not work fine. Now I get already warning message when I try to install:

Warning: file_exists() [function.file-exists]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/www/zzl.org/w/e/b/webpinoy/wp-config.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (VIRTUAL_DOCUMENT_ROOT) in /www/zzl.org/w/e/b/webpinoy/htdocs/wp-load.php on line 32

that is fine do not pay attention to that error and just follow the instructions. if you do not think it will work, look at both video support sites under this as they are both WP sites with no edits

Yes, thanks. It seems to work. Now I have English version and have to switch to the German - but I think I can fix that easy.

Well, WP is now running. Some plugins however don't caused by the restrictions (file types). I still looking for a solution how to send mails since PHP's mail() function is not running without payment. So I try a plugin using smtp (wp-mail-smtp) but it doesn't work yet. Even using the smtp of my gmail it comes with an error "SMTP -> ERROR: Failed to connect to server: ()"

"Check your php.ini settings around fopen() permissions..." is the advice of the pugin author....

I guess, the restrictions of Zymic causing this trouble too. But if I can't find a (free) solution for the mail the whole blog is useless... Do you have any solution?

smtp will not work at all since its disable and it will not be enable at all and fopen() is disable too

So, how can the visitors of my blog communicate with me? Drums

purchase mail() or enable comments

germanweb

Feb 14 2011, 05:19 AM

purchase is no more free.
comments are enabled but some people like to send a request not with a comment.
a blog or website without a possibility to send a request is a joke.

Hello, I am Dolly from China.
I just tried according to what you said above, however I cannot find "Miscellanous" from "Settings". I could only find "General", "writing", "reading", "discussion",etc. The last one is "links".
Therefore I cannot set this folder as default uploads folder.

I just tried to upload files, but did not succeed.
Right now I could only take URL from other websites to show the pictures.

Could you please help me to see what happened?
Thanks.

Installing Wordpress on Zymic is probably the easiest CMS install of the 3 major CMS systems out there (Drupal, Joomla, Wordpress). The install requires no edits to the basic code and files. Here's a quick rundown of the install process. First a recap of the basic Zymic setup can be found HERE.

This tutorial starts after you've created your web account and database.

Download the latest version of Wordpress.

Unzip these files and save them somewhere you can locate quickly. Your desktop should suffice.

Next open up your favorite FTP program and upload the files to your web directory using the FTP information you got earlier from when you were setting up Zymic.

Grab a cup of coffee this should take a few minutes.

Once all the files are uploaded goto your website (example: lizonwp.uuuq.com)

You should now get this page, put in your Blog Title and E-mail address. You can leave the check box checked off if you like.

Next you get this page. Write down your username and password. This will be needed later. Click on Log In.

Type in your username and password and log in.

Congrats! Almost done. Notice the warning message on top. Click on yes to change your password right now. You might as well do it now rather than later.

Scroll down to the bottom of the page and type in your new password and click on update profile.

That's it! Wordpress is installed! See told you it was simple.

all i get is account created successfully. i've created my db and user edited the wp-config file and nothing....help me please

You can fix this by changing the "wp-content" permissions.

I'm having another problem, this keeps on showing up:
In the "Incoming Links", "WordPress Blog", and "Other WordPress News" sections in the Dashboard.

I am having this error also, on the dashboard and another similar problem "An Unexpected HTTP Error occurred during the API request." when trying to import another wordpress site. As soon as I press the wordpress button on the import page it gives me that error.

I don't have any idea how to fix this.

So, now I have a different problem. I have Wordpress working. I have posted my inaugural post. Yet when I go to my page it's just the default "Zymic Free Web Hosting" under construction default page. I cannot for the life of me make it work.

when i downloaded wordpress it was in a zipped compressed file then i moved it to the desktop and it didnt say it was zipped anymore, did moving it to the desktop unzip it?

ssfdre38

Nov 29 2011, 06:55 PM

no it will keep it zipped so you need to go inside the zip folder to unzip it

ebrady_29

Nov 30 2011, 05:53 PM

ok when i right click on the compressed zipped file it says extract does that mean the same thing as unzip? I did that and loaded it with filezila but it just gave me 403 forbidden when i tried to go to the website
