Hi. I read the readme.txt and the faq.txt.

I uploaded the appropriate files, and set the permissions (php version).

I went to the admin page, and tried to login. The login, as per the admin page, is:

username: admin
password: poll

I than receive the following:
"Wrong username or password"

Please let me know how to proceed. Thank you.

I've done a forum search, but I come up with hundreds of posts that do not address my problem. One person did have a similar problem, but just replied that they resolved it. Can someone please help out with this?

While I am disappointed that someone was unable to answer my question: I'd rather not leave a "problem solved" out of annoyance. I would rather leave a reply that will help someone else.

I reuploaded everything, again. Apparently, the ftp program was not set to upload php files in ASCII. I thought it had uploaded everything accordingly. I reviewed the settings (as I have just re-installed several programs; ftp being one of them). php files were not among the list of extensions to upload in ASCII.

So, if anyone has the problem in the future, check to see that your ftp program is uploading php files in ASCII.

HTH someone along the way.

A good ftp program has an automatic setting, so it automatically switches between binary and ASCII without you having to do anything.

I've been using leap ftp for years. Never had a problem It's a very good ftp program.

The ftp program wasn't the problem. Getting an answer: that was the problem.
