Can't log into my wordpress site!

I installed wordpress through filezilla onto my site. When i go to login kristingustavson.com/wp-admin a general error page comes up saying the page you requested is not available. I followed all the steps in the 5 minute install video and now I am not sure where I am going wrong!

Yes, I would double check that you uploaded to the public_html folder, or the equivalent on your server. Were you able to resolve this issue?

Yes. I deleted all the wordpress files and reinstalled it. Now I know exactly where it is and how to get to it. Thanks!

Do you have the permissions on your files set correctly?

Unless you accidentally haven't uploaded the files to your public web directory, that's the only other thing I can think of.

Thanks for the suggestion. I could not find the directory and I was a little lost with what to do, since a friend set up the sight for me the first time. I uninstalled and reinstalled wordpress and everything is working out just fine.
