uploading

[paul76]

i just sent it. it split one of the lines

[paul76]

I just removed those two line and it starts without them. There has to be somthing wrong there somewhere.

Got it.

Don't know why I didn't think of this earlier, but try this:

LoadModule php4_module "c:/program files/php/sapi/php4apache.dll"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml

Or, if that doesn't work:

LoadModule php4_module c:/progra~1/php/sapi/php4apache.dll
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml

It was the first one with the "quotes" thanks. I finish based on your tutorial. Is there anything else I'll have to do.

[filburt1]

Nope, vB should install now. Just use "root" as the username and nothing as the password when installing it.

[paul76]

Thanks...I appreciate the help.

[filburt1]

The only thing that comes to mind is that you should put the stuff in Apache's htdocs folder to simplify things.

Glad to help.

[paul76]

What stuff should i put there. Also now that I completed your tutorial, how do I upload this stuff. I've beenplaying around here for an hour and still no clue. I'm reading the manual also but I'm still not sure how to proceed. This is harder than I thought.

You can't upload to your own computer

Just copy everything from the "upload" directory of the vB download to some folder in htdocs, then run install.php. No need to edit config.php even.

[paul76]

I created a new folder under the htdocs directory. How should I run the install file?

[filburt1]

Type http://localhost/folder you created/admin/install.php in your browser.

[paul76]

That's what I was doing but it's not workin. I'll keep trying it and I'll double check what I'm doing.

[paul76]

Can not get it to run.

[filburt1]

What's the problem?

[paul76]

i just got in. On the main page it askes for database servername and some other questions. When I proceedi get an error in the install file on line 334 and 336. Looks like it had trouble connecting to the database.
