phpBB does not have an .ini file. It is the config.php file that it checks for being writeable. If you are not allowing access from the outside world, it is not a problem if config.php is writeable. To set the file to read only: Open Windows Explorer Right click on the file Select Properties Check the box for Attributes -> Read-only Click Ok It is easy to update phpBB with the Autom

I have not attempted to pipe mysqldump through gzip. I usually create the backup file and then use 7-Zip to compress to a .gz compressed file. I did find this on the mysqldump page I linked you to: Quote(sic)Apparently this works on Windows %mysqldir%\bin\mysqldump -B %dbname% -u %dbuser% | gzip> %bkupdir%\dbBkup_%dbname%_%yy%%mm%%dd%.sql.gz Of course,you need gnu gzip in your path o

or MySQL Administrator QuotemacrunningSo how do I get your method to write the filename.sql to a different directory? Do it like you have always done, C:/myfilepath/filename.sql I am not sure why the methods are different. Different flavors have different ways of doing things, I guess.

CLI = Command Line Interface which is done with the DOS command window. I believe the MySQL console in WAMP is only for running queries. There are several ways to open the Command Window depending on your operating system: Start > Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt or Start > Run. Enter cmd or Start > Search. Enter cmd At the DOS prompt, entercd c:\wamp\bin\mysql

What version PHP? For me it worked on PHP 5.3.0 and older but not 5.3.1. I found that on Windows, php_mbstring is required and php_exif must be loaded after php_mbstring. Check your php.ini and place php_exif below php_mbstring and that both lines are uncommented.

ereg() is deprecated as of PHP 5.3.0 You can: 1) See if Drupal has an updated version to run with PHP >= 5.3.0 2) Search the Internet to find how to update ereg() functions to preg_replace functions 3) Install an older version of PHP on WAMP from the ADDONS menu at the top of this page

Actually, ereg() and ereg_replace() were deprecated in 5.3.0 as well as eregi() and eregi_replace(). To run Wordpress on Wamp, downgrade php to a 5.2.x version by downloading from the ADDONS menu and installing php. Or you could go through the Wordpress files and replace all ereg* functions with preg_replace functions. There are generalized instructions on the internet how to do this.

Is your university server using a Unix-based server? I assume your wampserver is running on Windows. For maximum portability between servers, lowercase table names should be used. I didn't test, but evidently, you can set case sensitivity in mysqld See MySQL Identifier Case Sensitivity for more information on the setting and the ramifications of mixed case table names.

There is no way to fix in wampserver. The path to the images need to be correct in your script. Either correct the path in your script or move the images to the www directory. For best results, a relative path should be used. This will maintain the best portability between wampserver and your online server.
