    Hi guys. Need some help.

    I just got my new domain. I have forward the nameserver to hosting as a 2nd domain. After few hours my sites is running, and i have install wp for it. However due to a mistake, i have manually delete the wordpress folder. So i try to install it again. And it gives me error

    cant install more than 1 script in domain root.

    The thing is my domain root is empty, except for the cgi bin file.

    Anyone can help me on this..please

    Just remove that domain and add it again. Then install the WP through Fantastico or Softaculous

    Thats the problem. I already did that like 3 times. still got the same error.

    let me explain :

    My main domain : mytv8.
    2nd domain : watchsmallville
    3rd domain : boxmerah

    So i want to install wp in my 3rd domain. It works just fine when the sites is up and running. However, i made a mistake when i deleted all the wp file in it. So i thought i can just reinstall it. Then i just remain the cgi bin file. I try to install wp again. No success..

    then i deleted my 3rd domain, the root file. I install it again. Try to install wp...still no success

    Error msg : The installation can not be completed:
    - You cannot install more than one script in the root directory of a domain.

    I agree that the best thing to do would be to contact your provider. It will be much easier and quicker for them to resolve the problem because they will have SSH access.

    lol.. look in ur root folder, if you're still having this problem.. there should be a folder call .fantasticodata

    open up that folder and look for the files that correspond to the wordpress installation and delete them..

    when u manually deleted the wordpress folder, ur fantastico still think's there's a installation there and thus would disallow u to install again on the same directory.

    look for the file that has the list of ur installed applications/scripts from .fantasticodata and remove those lines/files corresponding to it.
