When making the required www.mysite.com/pixelpost/admin/install.php to complete the installation I get a 404 file not found.

The above entry is from the Pixelpost Wiki.

On the doc from the installation, it states use..
yoursite.com/where_you_installed_pixelpost/admin/install.php.
Where you installed doesn't much sense to me and after several variations was also unsuccessful.

Any tips you have pointing me in the right direction will be appreciated.
Thank you,
Rick

read the document readme.txt
this will refer to the document readme_installation.txt in the /doc folder

this article is really important!!!!

Did you enter the data for the database in /include/pixelpost.php?

Did you upload all files in ASCII-mode?

I am sure not all files are uploaded and/or the databaseconnection is not working

you should remove the install.php from your admin directory.
