Topic : Wordpress install - Error .htaccess


Posted By: ericmagsamen on May 9, 2012, 11:51 am
When attempting to install WordPress I get this message.

The following errors were found :
  • Installation cannot proceed because the following files already exist in the target folder :
    • .htaccess

Please delete these files or choose another folder.OR
Select the checkbox to overwrite all files and continue


I removed all .htaccess, but It keeps magically returning to the \public_html folder.

Hi,

Sir does the .htaccess file exist in the directory where you are installing WordPress ?
Can you please open a support ticket with a test account details so that we can check the issue.

Hi,

You can submit a support ticket here:
http://www.softaculous.net/support

And the solution for this is to select the "Overwrite files" checkbox on the install form after you get the error and then click on install button.
