I am trying to install my BoldGrid from the Plesk 12.5 Web Admin but I keep getting an error with the Install Directory – it says :

“scmarketing.co.za already contains a WordPress installation.”

Under the details of my domain hosting, I cannot find anything regarding this.

Please advise

Hello,

Thanks for contacting us about this. Plesk is not letting you install it because it has already installed WordPress in the directory you are trying to use. Generally, when using tools like Plesk or softaculous to install software it will keep a log of what it has installed and where it installed it to prevent overwriting things. You will need to uninstall the previously installed WordPress through plesk before it will let you install something else in the same directory.

Best Regards,
