Your wp-config.php file will be automatically edited with your new database access details when you install WordPress automatically using a one click installation script in cPanel provided by the best web hosts.

you are probably better off putting that in your own thread. May be different issues.

Hi Josh,

Quick question. How would it have been possible before to hand to log in and out of the site, carry out a number of updates, add plug ins etc and modify and create pages etc if the wp-config. file was needed to access?

It does say that this part of the installation process is optional

It has been running fine under the current config. As I understand it the installation of WP was done by hosting company. Its not my site.

You are correct and no need to forgive. I am confused.

Sorry. Will look at editing the file and rename as suggested and then see what happens.

Thanks for your patience.

The wp-config sample has 80 lines but there is just 4 on the wp-config.

I d-loaded a fresh copy of wp this afternoon and have just compared the files, which until the installation happens is only a wp-config sample if I’m correct?

Same number of lines as what sits on my current config-sample in live. The installation of this site was done by the hosting company.

I am looking at wp-config.php file and now that the code is removed there are only 4 lines of code.

The file sits in the installation map along with index.php, wp-comments-post.php etc

I saw that also but there is no line 96 (unless it is hidden)

I have the wp-config-sample file and the wp-config.file.

The WP_DEBUG is commented out on the sample file and the code as advised above was added to the wp-config file.

Is it possible that there are hidden lines on the wp-config file?

I checked but there appears to be only 6 lines on wp-config :/

Hi Josh,

This is the new message from de-bug. No mention of the plug-in at all.

‘Notice: Constant WP_DEBUG already defined in /vhost/vhost16/t/e/r/terminalcheesecake.com/www/www/wp-config.php on line 96’

Hi there Ross,

Thanks for the assistance. I’d already renamed the Easy columns plugin when I saw the de-bug notice but I am still unable to log in.

Cleared down browser cache. Is it worth emptying the cache file in the wp-content folder on the server?

??

Is it worth re-loading (importing) the back-up DB and then uploading the saved files?

Hi Ross,

I just got this message

Notice: Constant WP_DEBUG already defined in /vhost/vhost16/t/e/r/terminalcheesecake.com/www/www/wp-config.php on line 96 Notice: Undefined property: EasyColumns::$use_custom in /vhost/vhost16/t/e/r/terminalcheesecake.com/www/www/wp-content/plugins/easy-columns/easy-columns.php on line 233

Hi there Ross,

Thanks for the contact. I followed the instructions to the letter but when I go to the upgrade.php link it only tells me that my web site cannot find this page. I cleared cookies from the browser, refreshed server files etc.

I am at a loss as what to do.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
