This
will uncompress WordPress in its own “wordpress” directory. I like having
WordPress in a separate directory, but would rather rename it to “website”. Use
following command to rename the directory.
sudo mv wordpress website
Create
the WordPress wp-config.php file:
cd website
mv wp-config-sample.php wp-config.php
vi wp-config.php
mv wp-config-sample.php wp-config.php
vi wp-config.php
- Type i to start insert mode.
- Modify the database
connection parameters as follows:
define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘website);
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘root’);
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘YOUR_PASSWORD’);
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’);
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘root’);
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘YOUR_PASSWORD’);
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’);
- Type:wq to write the file and quit vi
Open
the WordPress configuration using <youip>/website/wp-admin.
