Wordpess Installed - OK. No pages are displayed. Only index

#

Hello,

To start... I'm new to web development in general, but have a background in various computer technologies.

WordPress seems to be installed correctly (install.php ran successfully).

Software Info:

* Windows 2003 Server
* Apache v2.2.16
* MySQL v5.1.51

If I go to the default URL, only the index of files/folders is displayed.

If I navigate these files / folders to wp-admin and select users.php (for example), I can use the admin interface to create users, pages, etc.

The problem is that I cannot view any pages (or any type of content for that matter).

i.e. If I select the sample "about" page, and then select "View Page", I simply get the index again. All permalinks take me to the index.

Does anyone know what could be wrong?

I've reinstalled WordPress a few times, etc, etc... always the same result.

Thanks in advance,
Mike.

It sounds like index.php is not set to be one of your default directory indexes. Check with your host and/or check your Apache httpd.conf file to make sure index.php is included as a Directory Index. If you can create your own .htaccess file, try adding the following to it:

DirectoryIndex index.php

Hello,

Thanks very much for the quick replies!

bh_WP_fan, you were right. The only file included as a directory index was index.html. After adding index.php as a directory index in my httpd.conf file, everything worked properly.

Thanks again, and have a good day!

Mike.
