Re: [geeklog-users] GeekLog on Windows 2000 or XP Pro (fwd)

What questions do you have?

I just downloaded mysql, php and installed geeklog 1.3.7 on my windowsworkstation running IIS. First time I tried it and it worked flawlessly.

I created a virtually directory called geeklog and had it point toc:\inetpub\geeklog\public_html

I copied the geeklog files to c:\inetpub\geeklog

1. Edit your config.php to the correct paths.

//+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+// | SERVERSETTINGS |//| |// | All paths must have a trailing slash ('/'). If you're on Windows,they |// | must also start with a drive letter (e.g.'C:/'). |// | The 'path' value signifies where the config.php (this file)resides |//+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+$_CONF['path'] = 'c:/inetpub/geeklog/'; //C:/inetpub/wwwroot/geeklog/ ****** This is the only line I changed.


// You only need to change this if you moved or renamed the public_html
// directory. In that case, you should specify the complete path to the
// directory like this (i.e. without the $_CONF['path']):
// $_CONF['path_html']    = '/path/to/your/public_html/';
$_CONF['path_html']       = $_CONF['path'] . 'public_html/';

//+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+// | SITESETTINGS |//| |// | These settings help define your Geeklogsite. |//+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+

// make sure this is the correct URL to your site (no trailing slash)

$_CONF['site_url'] = 'http://localhost/geeklog'; ***** makesure you change this line too.



2. edit your lib_common.php

/**
* Configuration Include: You should ONLY have to modify this line.
* Leave the rest of this file intact!
*/

require_once( 'c:/inetpub/geeklog/config.php' );   **** change this line


4. run the install at http://localhost/geeklog/admin/install/install.php

Follow the instructions and you have site up and running.

This is how it worked for me.
