Getting Started

I have installed XAMPP onto windows Vista - apache MySQL etc. all running ok

Downloaded and unzipped PT ok

I want to run PT on the apache server.

Step 3 of installation states "Upload the files and directory structure to your web server."

How do I upload files to the apache server?

Thanks

Steve

Hello Steve,

If you are running it locally there is no need to upload the files anywhere else, instead you simply copy them to the folder on your server that corresponds to is the root of the website you see when you browse to http://localhost/

I think for Apache it is the /htdoc directory wherever Apache was installed. Once the Price Tapestry files are in that folder you should then be able to go to http://localhost/setup.php

Hope this helps!

Cheers,
David.
