[Dbconfig-common-devel] dbconfig-common and wordpress

[Kai Hendry]

I added the config file:
http://trac.natalian.org/changeset/1539

But still dpkg-reconfigure wordpress doesn't bring up anything. I
previously messed about with dbconfig-common. I don't why it thinks
there is a /etc/dbconfig-common/wordpress.conf because I deleted and
purged it!

The quick and dirty dev guide should provide information about this
"config" file. I wish the guides where in plain ASCII text, not HTML. :)

I hope I can generate a file for the package to use like so:

bible:504$ cat /etc/wordpress/config-wp.dabase.com.php
<?php

define('DB_NAME', 'wordpress');
define('DB_USER', 'wordpress');
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'NlnwntpelhjSGiOv');
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');

$table_prefix  = 'wp_';

$server = DB_HOST;
$loginsql = DB_USER;
$passsql = DB_PASSWORD;
$base = DB_NAME;
?>

Best wishes,
