Hi All,
I have taken over an old website, dated and looking around 2007. I installed WordPress via Softaculous. However when trying to access via wp-admin, I get the following message:
The requested URL /wp-admin was not found on this server.
I tried doing it manually then through these instructions - Removed - (I uploaded and extracted WordPress zip in cPanel file manager as opposed to using Filezilla). When I follow these instructions, the website homepage should be WP set-up. However I am still seeing the old website homepage with no WP options.
I think part of the problem may be needing to delete the old website completely. I have spent almost 3 days trying to figure this out and getting nowhere. I have set up new websites in the past without any problems, however, this is the first revamp of an old one and I am finding it difficult. Hoping somebody can help me out, please.
Thanks in advance.
