wp-config is not getting loaded

[atticoos]

How does the submodule load the root directory's wp-config? I can't seem to get this part working

WP bootstraps a file called wp-load.php which looks for the wp-config.php file in the submodule folder. Since wp-config.php does not exist in wp, it checks to see if /wp-config.php exists.
