WampServer

I was wondering where I would place all the PHP files from a SMF migration on WAMPServer ?

Sorry:

Vista Ultimate is the OS

place them in a folder called forum in ur www folder


then u just goto http:/ /mysite.com/forum and it will show up


if u need any help setting up smf just ask

Thanks, I appreciate it. I am not at the machine right now, but plan on tackling it again when I get home from work. I tried doing it manually last night, but could only get Apache up and running, not PHP...... never even got to Mysql ( it was installed, but I could not get the ./install.php script to run.

no no did you download wamp? u dont need all the things seperatly, wamp is -windows apache mysql php


one click and they all start up

Yes, I was lucky to find this site today ( wish I did last night )

My plan was to
1) Uninstall Apache
2)Uninstall PHP
3) Uninstall MySql
4) Install WampServer

Then.....? Thought I would copy all the PHP files over and run the install.php script for SMF?

u dont need to copy them
i think wen u install smf it asks where to place. wen u download wamp there is a www like apache

make a folder in it for smf

then install it to there

I don't remember seeing a Windows type msi or exe installer.

It just looked like php files to me, the you run the ./install.php from a browser....? No ?

you can get a msi installer for it..


but if u dont have it then yes - save the files into a folder in www and run the install - i presume its smf 1.3?



anyway just be sure u uninstall all of apache mysql and php


it really messes up wamp if its not totally gone

It's 1.1.4. I will do that.

Any idea where the msi installers are?

just realised thats for weserver install. not suitable for u


the other one is fine
copy everythin into a folder called forum in the www fodler
and run the install.php once u have php and mysql running and smf will make all its databases it needs
