Still struggling with this. To repeat, everything seems to install
correctly, but when I browse to the site or webstop, it tells me that
no project exists and gives me a link to set one up even though I have
set one up.
I am on Vista, using Apache (WAMP) with SQL Express and CF9
I put the farcry directory in my webroot. The project I setup exists
underneath the project folder. I also created a folder in another part
of the webroot that I am planning on redirecting to the project/www
directory. So visitors will go to www.mysite.com/suchandsuch_folder...this
will redirect to farcry/projects/suchandsuchproject/www/
I setup some aliases in my Apache (and I am no Apache expert so I
could have done this wrong)
Alias /activant/eagle_customers "C:/Program Files/wamp/www/farcry/
projects/eagle_customers/www"
Alias farcry "C:/Program Files/wamp/www/farcry/core"
Alias webtop "C:/Program Files/wamp/www/farcry/core/webtop"
So, basically, I cannot figure out why it is not recognizing the
project. Is it the farcryconstructor file or something else? Thoughts?
