Hello,
For 4 days now i ahve been trying to migrate my wordpress blog from a shared hosting to DO .
I want my wordpress to be on Nginx but i have been stuck. all the tutorials does not work for me.
Please help..... Thanks in advance
First i have created a directory healthable and moved my backup there and extracted it but then i can't edit the wp-config as it will prompt me to create a new file with that name.
My database has been imported yet i can get it to work with the database user i created early.
I followed this tutorials

The article from bivori.com is exactly the one you need.
but then i can't edit the wp-config as it will prompt me to create a new file with that name.
Is something preventing you from editing wp-config.php file?
It won't prompt for a new file, if you don't edit this file you will see a Error establishing database connection. If it is edited properly and database permissions are correct it will work.
