Hello,

I have installed xampp in /opt/lampp  When I browse to http://localhost, the
Xampp home page come up and these are shown

MySQL database   ACTIVATED
PHP   ACTIVATED
Perl  ACTIVATED
Common Gateway Interface (CGI)  ACTIVATED
Server Side Includes (SSI)  ACTIVATED
PHP extension »Turck MMCache«  DEACTIVATED see FAQ
PHP extension »OCI8/Oracle«  DEACTIVATED see FAQ.

In a terminal window starting xampp brings up this

Starting XAMPP for Linux 1.4.11...
XAMPP: XAMPP-Apache is already running.
XAMPP: XAMPP-MySQL is already running.
XAMPP: XAMPP-ProFTPD is already running.
XAMPP for Linux started.


 I have loaded Mambo files need to go to /var/www, should they all just go
in together?


I am then told to create a new database for the Mambo site.How do I do this
bit? When I tried the given instructions in a terminal window it said that
it could't find anything.

You then need to create the SQL table and assign it to a username (don't use
the root username under MySQL!), and then run the install script.  Chances
are you will then have to do some chmoding to get some permissions changed,
but the script will tell you what needs changing.

Thanks.
Andrew.

Hello Phil,

wotking.

At present I am here

>  Do you have Apache, PHP and MySQL up and running?

Not as such. I have installed them from the Mandrake CD's. and they have
dissappeared into to PC innards.
I installed Mambbo to  home/noel/Mambo

I ran' /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd start' whcih I understand should start
Apache.But nothing else .
The instructions that I was following then suggested that I should adjust
the 'init' files to start automatically and start adding content?

I have done no more. What next p[lease

Noel
