XAMMP Setup - Serious error
Posted: 15. October 2006 23:33
Hey all, I came across a link to XAMMP earlier today, and decided to take it for a spin. The installation went smoothly, but when I try to get to http://localhost in Firefox, nothing turns up. Just a blank page, which I'm assuming isn't what I should be seeing.
I can see an 'index.php' in the xammp folder, and when I try to access it directly (http://localhost/index.php) it asks me to download it, which I can only assume means Apache isn't running. I've attempted starting Apache through the xammp control panel, and despite any glaring errors, I'm still getting the blank page. However, I'm very much a novice at all this, and would appreciate some pointers on what to do next. Thanks for your help
