Hello, I’ve been struggling 8 hours on this and I would appreciate any help

I’ve researched this high and low but cannot find an answer.

Problem: At STEP 2 of bbpress installer I try to access my wp-admin page for the requested Salts, but lo and behold – I’m locked out of wp-admin! I am shown a blank page.

WordPress and bbpress downloads share the same mysql database. bbpress is on same level as wp-admin — eg. mysite.com/forums. (see: https://picasaweb.google.com/andrews.bda/DirectoryBbpress# )

Why would my wp-admin lock me out during the bbpress installation?

Thanks in advance for any help!

WP 3.1

bbpress 1.0.3

dreamhost

(((As an aside, maybe this has bearing on my problem….I did not have any auth or salt keys located within my wp-config.php file after dreamhost one click install. I had to manually copy and paste from wp-configsample.php!)))))

I found the solution to my above problem…this mistake is for the other potential newbie’s making silly mistakes

My database password entered into my wp-config.php file was incorrect. My WP install was a one click install with dream host and I needed to configure the wp-config.php file – for some reason there was barely any information in it.

Topic Closed. yay.
