After reading a very helpful tutorial regarding installing WAMP onto my PC (XP Pro) I now have all 3 up and running...

when browsing to http://localhost I receive the...

"If you can see this, it means that the installation of the Apache web server software on this system was successful. You may now add content to this directory and replace this page."

So I then uploaded the contents of the HTML folder into the Apache folder.. but I dont get the XOOPS genie... anyone know where I am suppose to put these files and folders?

thanks

Into the 'www' folder, and delete index.html which is already in there.

In the web folder that should be something like "htdocs" or something.

The best is, you make a subdirectory in \htdocs\ like for instance \htdocs\myxoopssiter\ and then copy the XOOPS files in this directory.
This because there are more files in the \htdocs\ directory. \htdocs\ is www for your local site.

use phpmyadmin to manage your databases.
Download it HERE.

I believe there is a html doc to guide you through. You'll need to modify the config file.

Extract the phpmyadmin and put the folder in the root of your webdocs.

For Apache, look at the httpd.conf file in the Apache/Apache2/conf directory. There is a line to set your document folder:
DocumentRoot "C:/public_html"
Make this where every you want on your system. If it is left blank, the default is Apache/Apache2/htdocs

I don't know wamp, I use xampp, but you can see for yourself if phpmyadmin is installed if you go to http://localhost.

When you have phpmyadmin, first login as admin and make a new user for instance : newxoopsuser. Then login as this newxoopsuser and make a databse in phpmyadmin for instance 'myxoopssite'. Use the data (username, pwd, databasename) in your XOOPS installation.

phpmyadmin is installed with WAMP as well and is accessable through the menu on the taskbar near the clock.
