http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress#Step_3:_Set_up_wp-config.phpStuck in what way?
renaming the file wp-config-sample.php to wp-config.php,
I already resolved my problem:)
-
Awesome!
-
-
I am now Done installing WordPress. Next is configuration of settings as per the WordPress Documentation I need to edit in Text Editor.
Configure Database SettingsImportant: never use a word processor like Microsoft Word for editing WordPress files!
Locate the file wp-config-sample.php in the base directory of your WordPress directory and open in a text editor.
Is there any chance i can edit it Using Command?
-
I usually connect to my linux server via FTP and edit the files in Windows using Notepad++
-
@joyfano Yeah, notepad++ on windows or sublime text on MAC. You can connect to the server using SFTP and directly edit the files using the tools mentioned.
Or you can use VI editor to edit the file directly from the command http://www.cs.colostate.edu/helpdocs/vi.html

@ambarishrh Thank You so Much. I will try this very soon. Ill get back for the result
-
Good luck!
-
@ambarishrh I just realize that i already used the vi when i edit files in command
-
Yes, vi is a supported editor in most linux distributions. You just need to understand the editor and know the various commands for using vi. But to be on the safe side, make it as a practice to backup any file before you edit. I normally use the cp command to copy the original file as .back before making any changes. Saved me a lot of times!
-
Understanding and familiarizing the command is one thing that i need to do right now. I am really having fun working with this. Though I am done installing everything, I want to make sure that i really did, Is there any chance that i can view or use command in checking the application if its already installed?

@Joyfano What exactly you want to check? Are you able to browse the admin page of your wordpress installation?

I want to check if my WordPress is Successfully Installed.
Well as of this time i only have access in command No GUI. -
@Joyfano I believe this is a machine connected to network. If so, you just need to browse the wordpress server http://domainname/wp-admin/install.php from another computer. It will walk you through the next installation steps and then you can access wordpress admin page http://domainname/wp-admin/
-
If there are any installation errors, it would be shown on the wordpress page.

I got this after I'm done editing for correct substitute
// ** MySQL settings - You can get this info from your web host ** //
/** The name of the database for WordPress */
define('DB_NAME', 'wordpress');/** MySQL database username */
define('DB_USER', 'wordpressuser');/** MySQL database password */
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'password');as per this instruction = http://www.cs.colostate.edu/helpdocs/vi.html
Usually the new or modified file is saved when you leave vi. However, it is also possible to quit vi without saving the file.
So is it ok if i type exit command of i need to Press specific command to save my files? -
If you've made the changes on vi editor, press the "Esc" key, then ":" key and then type "wq" (write and quit)
You can then check the changed using the command "cat filename"
-
