 * I’m working for the first time with wordpress. When I open wordpress I faced 
   this message.
    “1. There doesn’t seem to be a wp-config.php file. I need this
   before we can get started. then when I tried to configure wp_config.php then 
   I faced the following problem. 2. Error establishing a database connection. 3.
   This either means that the username and password information in your wp-config.
   php file is incorrect or we can’t contact the database server at localhost. This
   could mean your host’s database server is down.
 * Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
    Are you sure that you
   have typed the correct hostname? Are you sure that the database server is running?
 * I have wamp 2.2 (Apache 2.4.2, PHP 5.4.2, MYSQL 5.5.24
    I have windows 8… what
   Now I do now, please guide and help me,
