Howdy, www.apachefriends.org is a bunch of people who make a package out of the latest versions of PHP, MYSQL and Apache. I've made a Midgard package to the latest version of their tarball. This should make it easier for other people to test midgard without having a hard time installing Midgard from source on some unsupported distro.
So: Please test :-) You can find the package here: http://www.nehmer.net/~tarjei/midgard-1.7.2-xampp-1.5.0.tgz Instalation instructions here: ## Download The plugin should be uploaded to the [http://addons.xampp.org] xampp.org directory quite soon. If you need it before that, contact me on #midgard to get a downloadlink. You will also need to download the normal XAMPP package from here: ## Installation If you install lampp somewhere else than /opt, you have to change the paths accordingly. 1. Untar the normal xampp package and then this package. Edit /etc/ld.so.conf and add these lines at the end: /opt/lampp/lib /opt/lampp/lib/mysql And run : ldconfig Then change lampp to use php4 : /opt/lampp/lampp php4 Now, enter the lampp directory: cd /opt/lampp and run datagard: sbin/datagard Choose to install a new database and go through the motions. At the end of the database installation, you will be asked to add a virtualhost. Add this virtualhost and restart lamp (lampp restartapache). If Apache restart fails, edit the etc/httpd.conf file and comment out the Listen: 80 directive. Let's say you added the virtualhost www.example.com. First, if your dns doesn't return this hostname, add the correct adress to /etc/hosts. Then navigate to: www.example.com/midgard and follow the "log in" link. THe username is admin and password is password. Now you can go through the sitewizard and you'll have your first midgard site in no time! ## Links [http://www.midgard-project.org/documentation/images/midgard-admin-sitewizard/create-website-with-site-wizard] It will be moved to Sourceforge shortly.
