wordpress clone is not running on web matrix 2


I have cloned wordpress site over git. And I am trying to work on local copy with WebMatrix 2 but when I run the site I get blank page and only favicon is showing correctly. I guess it is because of databases. How to make it work if I have access only to git clone?


Solution

  • You need to have a msql database running somewhere :) Where did you get this WordPress repo from? Does it have a *.sql file scripted out somewhere so you can do a restore? Or are you trying to connect to a mysql database that's already running on another server?
