Wordpress Install?

[HiMi]

I can't install WordPress on Johnny. How do I do so? I'm sure I did everything right, but I get an error saying that while my username and password were okay, the database wasn't picked up. I do see it in the cPanel, but WordPress doesn't. The host name I'm using is localhost, if that means anything.

Actually, there is an easier way to install WordPress!<b>In your cPanel under "Software/Services", there's Softaculous!

Just pick WordPress, fill out the info, and it will install WP for you without any pain!

Even upgrading to new edition will also be easier if you install through Softaculous

I agree, Softaculous is the best way to install Wordpress.

...and heliohost's servers have cURL built-in, so there's no hassle with upgrading!

thank you for softaculous! I have a question, i've been trying to install wordpress onto johnny & it doesn't recognize it. I've input all the info about which database & user to go through but it still won't install. It's telling me that my server isn't supporting php. Is there something i need to change through sql? or did I pick the wrong server? any info is gratefully appreciated!

Johnny supports PHP. Maybe it was temporary problem, Johnny is a bit unstable.
