my local installation of XOOPS is not happening.

This is my XOOPS physical path:

c:/phpdev/www/public/html

What is my XOOPS Virtual Path (URL) Path?

I ask this because after providing a name for the database, the XOOPS installation wizard tells me it cannot create database.

Incidentally, I'm assuming that I can pick any username and password at random during installation.

I'm using a win/xp over a successful phpdev5 WAMP server.

This will most likely be: http://localhost/

For the database? You need to setup a DB with db name, user name, password. Then when setting up XOOPS, you must provide all this database account info for it to connect successfully. You cannot just create a DB account from XOOPS installation. You must create this in MySQL.

PHP5? Im not sure if XOOPS works 100% yet with PHP5...
Any reason you cannot run the latest stable PHP4? This is recommended.


I have XOOPS running perfectly on my WAMP box, just so you know that it does work fine.
