Hello,
I am trying to set up WP MU and when I go to mysite.com/index.php it says that "There doesn't seem to be a wp-config.php file. I need this before we can get started." Then it has a button that says "create a configuration file" but when I click on it, it waits a few seconds and then gives me the same error. How can I create a wp-config.php file?
Thanks,
Dave
Check the file permissions on the directory. If your webserver process can't write files then it wont work.
You get that message when it finds another config file on the server. DO NOT edit the config file.
try going to mysite.com/index-install.php and see if you get an install screen.
if not, do this:http://wpmututorials.com/installation2/installing-in-a-subfolder/
Are you sure the error wasn't "Sorry, I need a wp-config-sample.php file to work from. Please re-upload this file from your WordPress installation"?
Reference: http://trac.mu.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/index-install.php#L454
There isn't a wp-config.php included as that's created during the install. Please make sure the sample file is included in the root of the install.
