Hi all,
I’ve just purchased and downloaded my copy of EE 2.5.5 and when I downloaded it and unzipped it I found config.php and database.php blank so I can’t install EE!
Any idea why this is happening? Is there anywhere I can find those two files?
Thanks!

Since you just bought EE you might get quicker help with the EE tech support. Not sure, but those files may be written out during installation process: http://ellislab.com/expressionengine/user-guide/installation/installation.html
