Can't Get to Wizard [solved]

[Lincoln]

Hi. I know next to nothing about php or mysql, and I'm trying to improve my currently-html-based site. I'm hoping CMS Made Simple will be the answer.

But I can't even get off the ground.

Following the installation instructions at http://wiki.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php/User_Handbook/Installation/Quick_Install, I got as far as step 6, creating the database. I did this in MySQL Server. As the last paragraph of step 6 suggests, I couldn't use the exact names recommended in the documentation because my host insists on certain prefixes for database and user names.

But when I try to follow the instructions in step 7, and go to either myswebsite/index.php or myswebsite/cmsmadesimple/install/install.php, rather than the wizard, I get the php code.

Any suggestions?

This typically means that your host doesn't support PHP, or hasn't installed it for your domain.  Check with your host to make sure they support the minimum requirements (http://wiki.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php/User_Handbook/Installation/Requirements) of CMSMS...

My host definately does support php. In fact, I've experimented with WordPress with this host.

Okay. It's fixed. I had previously used php for another domain I have with the same host. I had to turn php on for this particular domain.

Thanks.
