Installation Fails on Live Website I have installed Craft 2.2.2579 on my never-before-used website live rather than on my PC in a development environment. (I am not a developer.) Instructions were followed exactly (I believe), but when I point my browser to http://{mySiteName}/admin or the other alternatives, I get:


The index page of the website itself loads just fine as http://{mySiteName}.

Any ideas?
Open up this file:

/craft/config/db.php


... and take a look at the very first line. The file should start with this:

&lt;?php


It sounds like that may not be the case with your file. Make sure there is absolutely nothing before that &lt; character, not even a blank line.
