Hello,

I have installed xampp on my computer and now I want install a website script but i dont know how to do that?
This is the readme.

1. Go into your cpanel, and create a MySQL database. I created a new database but what next?
2. Upload the files from the archive to your server.
3. Set 777 permissions for the 'tmpl_c' folder(CHMOD). How can i set 777 permission?
4. Run the install.php script and follow the instructions
5. http://www.yourdomain.com/install.php i want use http://localhost/install.php

When i copy the script to C:\xampp\htdocs, and run http://localhost/install.php, then came a long code there and same with index.php.

i am new in this field, maybe anyone can help me a little

usually, you can type in the Database connection data with help of an install.php script. Some applications have a config file instead of a install-webform. But in your instructions there is no word about such a file.

This is only relevant for *nix based Systems.

You can use http://localhost/install.php. In your case localhost is your Domain.

Most common a short_open_tag issue. Search for this keyword in the board search.
