Moving/resetting wordpress

I have an 'easy' installation of Wordpress on blog.mydomain.com (http://blog.japanassets.com), but I really want it on http://www.japanassets.com. When I try to do a new install, either easy or advanced (I've used Wordpress elsewhere using just FTP and phpmyadmin) it tells me www.japanassets.com already has a website.

Does this mean I need to delete 'www.japanassets.com' in the DNS tools, and then install WP again? If I just add WP via FTP, will this do the trick too?

Basically I'm afraid of messing things up/losing the domain(!) if I get something wrong.

You should be able to remove it from Goodies:

Panel > Goodies > One-Click Installs

- Upgrade or remove previously installed software

- Delete Files


I'd suggest reinstalling with an Advanced One-Click install.

Advanced One-Clicks usually complain if your japanassets.com directory isn't empty before it tries the install. Make sure there's *nothing* in there.

An Easy install won't install in any (sub)domain that's already set up in your Manage Domains section.

Thanks guys. The delete & replace seems to have worked.

Much appreciated.
