Hello all. I've got XAMPP, and I can't figure out where to put my IPB folders and files to install it on my harddrive. I know it's been done too. Any help is appreciated.
PS - I tried the search function, but didn't find any topics pertaining to this.
Full Version: IPB on harddrive...
Jeez....anyone?
To get help on installation of IPB, whether local or otherwise, login to your client area and submit a ticket.
Otherwise, since this is moreso related to XAMPP (of which I have not yet tried out) you can try the following site section (or their forums or something similar) and ask your question:
http://www.apachefriends.org/en/faq-xampp-windows.html#xpsp2
You didn't specify which operating system you're using either, and since there are 4 iterations of XAMPP, how are we to know where the default installations go?
As a small piece of info:
...you place IPB somewhere in your root folder (i.e.: /root_folder/forums/) and probably go to install.php or setup.php file to begin the installation process.

I've got Windows XP.
The only problem is I don't know where my root folder is. I've tried a bunch of different folders and none of them worked properly.

Where I change the start page?
Document is called a folder the $path-to-xampp\xampp\htdocs. There is the index site (index.html) the real start page which is initialized after executing of http://localhost. Alternatively, this page can also be deleted and replaced by "index.php" or "index.cgi" (etc.). The hierarchy of all index pages in the XAMPP be called:
DirectoryIndex index.php index.php4 index.php3 index.cgi index.pl index.html index.htm index.html.var index.phtml
Note: After changing that, you will find the XAMPP examples with the URL http://localhost/xampp.

So, I would assume:
C:\Program Files\XAMPP\htdocs\
Keep in mind, this is without me installing it. Wherever you told it to install, do a search for your "htdocs" folder(s). You then place any scripts you want to run in there, as that is your "root" folder.
Alright, with enough fiddling and your support, I've successfully done it. Basically, I was putting:
http://localhost/xampp/htdocs/forums/install/index.php
and I only needed to have:
http://localhost/install/index.php

I thank you for helping me with this
