Thanks a ton @howdy_mcgee! This is the perfect plugin for my needs.

This sounds like a Windows permissions issue to me. I imagine that you are saving the file under something like “C:\Program Files\Wordpress”, and Windows is funny about saving files outside of your “C:\Users\jesstlips\Documents” folder.

You can work around this by first opening your text editor (e.g. Notepad) as an administrator. There’s a bunch of tutorials on how to do this available. Once you’ve done that you should be able to open the wp_config.php file and edit it without any errors.

If that doesn’t work or if you’re looking for an easier way to get started with WordPress then I would recommend that you take HudsonValleyWebDesign’s advice and try a framework like WAMP.

Good luck!

Thanks a ton Mr. Blank! I ended up changing my “WordPress Address” setting, and that did the trick.

Thanks again!

Thanks a lot thelazygeisha! I’ll check that out soon.

I’m also having a similar issue. I just upgraded from 2.1 to 2.1.2, and when I access https://mysite/index.php/, I get your error. The error, however, doesn’t appear when I visit https://mysite/index.php.

This is a problem since the header link on my site points to the “ending /” version of my home page, not the version that works.

I’m using Apache. Anyone have any ideas as to how to fix this?

Thanks!
