Empty fly.toml file

[franwess]

Hi there,

First time fly.io user here

I am trying to create a MySQL database with this guide: Use a MySQL Database · Fly Docs

Getting everything right up to the point of editing the fly.toml file. I used the nano edit fly.toml command to edit the file but the file is empty.

Unsure how to proceed from here?

Much appreciated

nano edit fly.toml

Hi… At least in my version of nano, the above actually opens two files for editing, . The first one that is visible to you, the user, is a new, empty file named edit. (It says [1/2] in the top-left corner of the screen, to indicate that there are multiple.)

Try just nano fly.toml—or ls -l fly.toml to confirm existence through a different route.

Hope this helps a little!

Thank you very much! That worked perfectly
