  hello guys,

  i am done with my domain mapping which is im transfered my domain from smktsljohor.wordpress.com to smktsljohor.com and im pay 12USD.

  Then i download wordpress.org 3.2.1 because i’ve my own web hosting which allowed FTP. so i wanted to upload my wordpress.org file on my computer thru FileZilla to the root directory of the CPanel X. but the problems appear on my FileZilla screen:-

  Status: Connection attempt failed with “ECONNREFUSED – Connection refused by server”, trying next address.
  Status: Connecting to 72.233.2.58:21…
  Status: Connection attempt failed with “ECONNREFUSED – Connection refused by server”.
  Error: Could not connect to server

  Im very sure about my firewall has no probs coz i’ve try my 2nd website upload in this FileZilla without having this problems.

  – Can u tell me the real procedure on how to use wordpress.org?
  – do i need domain mapping which is to change my dns to wordpress dns before doing wordpress.org installation?
  – if i want to use wordpress.org, should i buy domain mapping which is cost about 12USD to change from wordpress.com to wordpress.org?
  – whats the problem with my FileZilla? ECONNREFUSED???
  – when i try this on web browsing “smktsljohor.com/wp-admin/install.php” its suddenly change itself to “http://smktsljohor.wordpress.com/wp-admin/install.php”. what the heck?

  i”ve try so many time and i got sick because of this s**t :p really tired..hope sumone please help me. i never face this problem before..

  thanks a lot guys..c ya

  First, you should make sure you understand the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org. Please read this page: http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  If you are using WordPress.com, then WordPress is installed and managed for you and you don’t need to use Filezilla or even have an external web hosting account or worry about any of that stuff.

  If you *do* want to have an external web hosting account and use the WordPress.org software which is separate from WordPress.com, then you need to go to http://wordpress.org/support/ which was setup specifically for volunteer, forum-based support for the free, open source WordPress.org software.
