After installing the latest Xoops 2.5
I get at the end some warning:

WARNING: Folder /www/MW_PPnRGaG/htdocs/xoops_lib is inside DocumentRoot!
For security considerations it is highly suggested to move it out of DocumentRoot.

WARNING: Folder /www/MW_PPnRGaG/htdocs/xoops_data is inside DocumentRoot!
For security considerations it is highly suggested to move it out of DocumentRoot.

If I move these two folders on the site root, I do net anymore the administration page.

Clicking on every module to manage the content, I get a blank page.

(Installed Modules
System - Private Messaging - User Profile - Protector)

Thanks for any suggestion.

Did you update your mainfile.php?

To expand on what Mamba is saying...

You need to move those out of document root but you also need to update the mainfile.php to reflect this change.

The lines like these in mainfile.php need to be modified to point to the right directories... ( lines 26-29 in the file I am quoting this from)
Quote:

// Physical path to the XOOPS library directory WITHOUT trailing slash
define('XOOPS_PATH', 'C:/xampp/htdocs/grtf/xoops_lib');
// Physical path to the XOOPS datafiles (writable) directory WITHOUT trailing slash
define('XOOPS_VAR_PATH', 'C:/xampp/htdocs/grtf/xoops_data');
