How can I edit config..?

Hi! I'm trying to enable markdown instead of html, but whenever I attempt to overwrite my existing config.php file, I get a critical transfer error. I guess I'm not supposed to do it that way?
Is there any other way to edit the config file?

Might be a permission problem. Have you tried editing it directly on your server?

Yes, I get "Operation not permitted" whenever I attempt to overwrite or edit config.php. It seems to be only that file though..
Try temporarily changing the file permissions to 777 - remember to write down the original permissions though, as you'll need to revert them once you've edited the file.

I had the same issue. Let me guess: You are on a shared host and the owner of the file is "www-data"?
Spot on! Were you able to get past this?
Yes, you need to edit the file either through SSH (if you have access) or you might need to contact your host. In my case I was able to delete the file through a web-based FTP that my host provides.
I'll look into this, thank you!
