Thread:Project:Support desk/LocalSettings.php not found.

I am using MediaWiki 1.17.0 after installing on a Linux server and completing the entire install process and placing the LocalSettings.php file in the root directory I am receiving an error after clicking the go to your wiki link that says"LocalSettings.php not found". I placed the file in the folder specified and I don't understand why it would say this. I tried an install on localhost but it did the same thing. I even tried setting all permissions to 7777 and still nothing. I have it up at my site http://earthendawn.com and the wiki is going to be at http://mentalhealth.earthendawn.com/wiki. I placed the wiki inside of another directory so it is located inside of /mentalhealth(this an elgg instalation)/wiki. I would like to have the wiki inside of the other directory because I would like my site to show it as /wiki instead of going to a whole mew site and having to setup a new subdomain. any help with this error message would be great. I wouldn't think it should matter what directory I put it in but now I don't know. Thanks, Douglas
