WHERE IS THE INSTALLATION SCREEN OF XOOPS?
HOW CAN I RUN THE INSTALL PROCESS?

I am Erhan from Istanbul, Turkey.
I can't run the XOOPS installation!!!

The XOOPS Installation Guide says:
".....copy the contents of the HTML directory to the root document path of your web environment. Once the files are copied there, you can start the install by typing http://yoursite.com. This will start the install process."

Where I will type http://yoursite.com (or http://mysite.com)???
This must be the same with the one I used when I configure Apache2 ???

I already followed these instructions:

1.
I started Apache Http Server 2.0.54 installation wizard.
I configured it:
Server Information Plaease enter your server's information:
Network Domain: mysite.com
Server Name: http://www.mysite.com
Administrator's Email Adress: admin@mysite.com
"for All Users, on Port 80, as a Service -- Recommended" checked
The files were copied to D:\Apache2
Installation complete. Apache Service started.

2.
Php configuration:
I copied the contents of "php-5.0.4-Win32" to D:\php
I copied php5ts.dll to Windows\system32\
I copied php.ini-recommended (php.ini) to Windows\
I stopped the Apache2 service and
I added required lines to httpd configuration file:
(LoadModule php5_module "d:/php/php5apache2.dll"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php)

to run php as a module under Apache2. OK.
Apache Monitor says: "Apache/2.0.54(Win32)Php/5.0.4"

3.
I started "mysql-4.1.7-win" installation package.
MySQL Server 4.1 Setup Wizard launched.
The files were copied to D:\MySQL\
MySQL Server Instance Configuration Wizard:
Detailed Configuration or Standard Configuration.
Install As Windows Service.
Modify Security Settings:
New root password: ******
Confirm: ******
I checked "Root may only connect from localhost"
When I clicked Execute:
Prepare configuration
Write Configuration file
Start Service
Apply security settings
Installation complete. MySQL Service started.

4.
Now I want to install Xoops.
I have Xoops-2.1.1 directory.
Where I will copy the contents of html?
e.g. I copied all to D:\Apache2\xoops2\
Is it correct?
The Xoops' Installation Guide says:
".....copy the contents of the HTML directory to the root document path of your web environment."
WHERE?

How can I launch the install wizard of Xoops?
The Xoops' Installation Guide says:
".....you can start the install by typing http://yoursite.com. This will start the install process."
Where I will type http://mysite.com?
When I type it in my browser, it doesn't work.

Maybe I failed during the previous three configurations (apache, php, mysql)
Please help!!!

If you're just wanting to test XOOPS you might like to try the Xoops stand alone server Rather than setting up a server yourself as you seems to be having some difficulties.
