Hi,

Can you guys guide me on how can i get my blog up and running and also my domain is on namecheap, so please tell how can i also link my domain with vps...

In your Domain: Edit the entry in your dns-Settings so that it will point to the ip of the vps.
On your Windows vps: instal iis with php.
This Should be a Windows server role.

The you Need a Database. For MySQL: http://www.iis.net/learn/applicatio...mysql-for-php-applications-on-iis-7-and-above

isn't webmatrix good enough ?

apache is good, you should you WAMP(Windows Apache MySQL PHP) stack to test locally on your computer to run wordpress, then move all files to vps server.
you can check installation tutorial on Wordpress.org...

go to your wp-admin
change the location from localhost to your domain-name.
-> wp-admin/options-general.php

I can't access my wp-admin... what's the alternative ?

 

[wedge1001]

go on your windows VPS and open it there via browser. this should work, since localhost ist there localhost ^^
you can then change it.

otherwise, i thnk it's coded to the database (though i don't remeber the name of the table. look s.th. like settings or config)

I tried to open http://allgamesfull.com/wp-login.php via my vps , but still same issues , not loading properly... i think i have to it through database , so can you please me !

 

[wedge1001]

on your vps try opening: http://locahost.com/wp-admin
on Database:
go to your wp_options table (if you have installed with standard settings)
there you'll finde siteurl. change it from http://localhost to http://allgamesfull.com
then change the "home" option also to your url.

this... should do it.
