Description

The wizard print out "can not copy file" error message now if apache user does not have privilege to write the web directory. We need better error message and also teach user how to generate the config.php by themself.

There is no way to solve the permission problem by using the web interface (Eric, Neil, Christopher) if Apache user does not own myamiweb folder. So for now:
1. If Apache user has the permission to edit the web directory. The wizard will generate the config file by itself.
2. If Apache user doesn't have the permission to edit the web directory. The wizard will print out the config file on the screen. And user needs to copy that and past to config.php under myamiweb directory.

Thanks.

By the way, to test this:
1. make sure the Apache user does not have the permission to edit your myamiweb folder. And run setup wizard.
Result: Wizard won't create config.php, but it will print it out on the screen.

2. make sure the Apache user do have the permission to edit your myamiweb folder. And run setup wizard.
Result: Wizard will create config.php file under myamiweb folder. User does not need to do anything.

Eric, when you get a chance could you come by, I have questions about this section:

    $setupUtils = new SetupUtils();
    $fileContents = $setupUtils->editConfigFile(CONFIG_TEMPLATE, $_POST);

    $copyResult = $setupUtils->copyFiles(CONFIG_TEMPLATE, CONFIG_FILE);

    if($copyResult){
            $result = $setupUtils->arrayToFile(CONFIG_FILE, $fileContents);

        if($result)
            $fileContents = $setupUtils->fileToArray(CONFIG_FILE);
