I installed wordpress into a directory on my hosting account so I can run the blog for another business.

I did everything like a normal install, only into a directory.

When I try to open it to bring up the setup portion, it gives me this message:

Warning: main(/home/content/l/a/s/las1277/html/SFSWP/wp-includes/load.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/l/a/s/las1277/html/SFSWP/wp-settings.php on line 19

Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/home/content/l/a/s/las1277/html/SFSWP/wp-includes/load.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/content/l/a/s/las1277/html/SFSWP/wp-settings.php on line 19

I checked it and the file wp-settings.php IS in the folder!

I do not know what to do. I even reloaded it via FTP to be sure the file hadn't become corrupted in transfer or something.

Advice or suggestions? Thanks! I have never had this kind of problem before

    You have to check if the file "load.php" is there. - Path: wp-include/load.php -

    The error is saying that the settings.php is calling that file but returning empty. That is, the file may be missing.

    Hmmmm....what is happening is this...

    When I transfer the files it is putting the content and includes folder inside the admin folder...and all the folders kind of stack like that inside.

    Can you tell me how to stop this without having to load every folder in each directory separately?

    Thanks! Oh....I have tried with FileZilla and Classic FTP

      That is weird. I have no idea what is causing it.

      Since you already uploaded them, just login to your cpanel and move the folders to the correct location. Right click on top of the folder and you'll have the option to "move" it.
      You can also use the filezila to drag the folders outside the wp-admin.
