Error – There doesn’t seem to be a wp-config.php file

wp-config.php doesn’t seem to be where it should be. Based upon the URL you provided, wp-config should be at https://www.spanish-aid.co.uk/wp-config.php. I get a file not found error. Other things are in that directory– like license.txt and the readme and wp-login.php. It really looks like you’ve forgotten to upload wp-config or you’ve uploaded it to the wrong place, although you can upload it one lever ‘higher’ than the rest of your install (I wouldn’t be able to tell if you did). Or file permissions are such that it isn’t being read, maybe.

Hi apljdi,

Thank you for your help. I have checked the transfer protocol programe and they are there. I am not sure if i have uploaded them properly though. I have taken a couple of screen shots of my FTP program, then uploaded in to my site. Would you mind to have a look at them and let me know your opinion?

Here is the link

At first, there is no wp-config.php. This is how WordPress knows it is a new installation. You can copy the wp-config-sample.php file that’s in with any installation. Open it in any text editor and you can manually edit he first couple lines-

// ** MySQL settings ** //
define('DB_NAME', 'dbname');    // The name of the database
define('DB_USER', 'username');     // Your MySQL username
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'password'); // ...and password
define('DB_HOST', 'mysql.server.com');

…and you’ll be ready to go. Good luck.

I think your problem is a missing wp-config.php. Follow TapeBoy929’s advise. If that doesn’t work we’ll try something else.

Your screenshot merely shows that you have the install file where it should be, not that the wp-config is where it should be which is what the problem is. You don’t have the wp-config.php uploaded to the server. Other files are there (I checked) but that one is not. Reupload it, making sure you have it in the root, and try again.

Hi all

Thank you for your help. I have checked every thing you sugested and stil not working. I have uploded some more screen shots so you can have a look.

Thanks again

That says wp-confi.php not wp-config.php.

Yup. When you renamed it you took off the “g”.

Yes, sorry about that and thank you for your help. I am geting this now “Your PHP installation appears to be missing the MySQL extension which is required by WordPress”. I have seen some sugestions on another post. I’ll see if i can get it runing in the next few days.

Thanks a lot.

All set up and ready to go. Thanks all for your help.
