Michael,

        You need to ensure that you have installed the following;

                1. apache22
                2. php52
                3. mysql client & server
                4. wordpress

        The easiest way is to port install php52 +apache22+mysql5. You will 
also need to install the mysql5-server separately form the above. I highly 
encourage you to read through the docs on setting up mysql server it's very 
straight forward except the initialization of the db core (man 
mysql_install_db). 

        Once you have successfully setup the basic database systems you will be 
able to connect as root to the db server on localhost. DO NOT enable outside 
network connections or you are asking for serious trouble. You will need to 
follow the setup of an empty db schema and appropriate user access. Do not set 
up wordpress to use your root account. Create a new db admin id for the WP site 
something akin to  siteadm and give it a unique password. Also don't forget to 
set the default password for the root user of your db server (this is different 
from the root shell user).

        Wordpress needs the siteadm and password for the sitedb before you can 
properly set it up.

        I hope that help clarify some of this for you. If you need more 
direction than this with the available documentation, perhaps it is time to 
hire a consultant and grant them ssh access to your server. Complete 
compilation aside this process should take approximately 2 hours on a bad day 
with a normal internet connection.
