  I recently got a new domain “sanponian.com”
  I tried installing wordpress through Fantastico.
  There is no problem browsing the web.
  But I cannot log in to the admin page.
  I asked my webhost support, but they told me to ask here.
  What seems to be the problem?

  Thanks.
  Blog url: http://mywashlet.org/

  I forgot to mention, but the blog URL is my first one.
  sanponian.com is completely different one.

  Thanks.

  http://mywashlet.org/sanponian.com/ is a self-hosted WordPress.org blog, which we really can’t help with.

  To clear up any confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different entities.

  WordPress.org has complete support and documentation sites for self-hosted/installed versions of WordPress via their Codex and Support Forums.

  If I had to guess, the problem may be due to the URL structure. You don’t actually have a domain setup with your hosting provider, just a domain forwarded to a directory. You might need to try manually changing the siteurl and home values to what they actually are.

  If that doesn’t work, please contact the WordPress.org Support Forums.
