    Hello. I received a wp-config error?
    “A wp-config.php already exists in this location. This error prevents users from accidentally overwriting the wrong directories contents. You have two options:

    Empty this root directory except for the package and installer and try again.
    Delete just the wp-config.php file and try again. This will over-write all other files in the directory.”

    Do I delete all files but the package and installer in filezilla?

    thank you!!

  • Typically when you migrate the site you want to place the installer and archive in an empty directory. However if you manually extracted the archive or just simply when back to the first step in the installer after running step one, then you can choose ‘Manual Package Extraction’ under the options section in step 1 and that will also allow you to go past the warning…

    Hope that helps~
