Hey,
After creating a droplet (with the included one-click installation for wordpress) it’s impossible for me to access Wordpress again.
It all started with installing a Wordpress theme from Themeforest that got denied by Wordpress auto theme installer, so I had to upload the files manually by (s)FTP in the provided Wordpress dir.
I had to fix SSH (login with SSH keys).
After login I did “ls” => WORDPRESS and checked the cd /var/www => this dir only contains a wp-config.php file
but when I try to access Wordpress on site I get the following error
Not Found
The requested URL /wp-admin/ was not found on this server.
and when visiting the website without /wp-admin/ I get
Forbidden
You don’t have permission to access / on this server.
I really have no clue what went wrong, anyone could help me out to get wordpress up & running again? ( @sierracircle )
Kind regards.
Maxime

@sierracircle the best help you can have, thanks for helping me out. Big thumbs up!
@sierracircle I did the
root@BELPOLTEX:~#
So there is not a folder to be found.
I prefer to do a clean install of Wordpress but want to be sure it will be very good secured installation.
Any ideas? Or How-Tos? (not really my strongest field)
Thanks already for the help!
I wonder if we should switch to a chat application…do you have google hangouts or something?
