I installed php, Apache And Mysql On Windows according to this tutorial ( http://www.13dots.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=10352) and it works. But I don't know how I can install Efiction on my computer and archive it. :cry:I looked for tutorials here but there are only the ones how I can make a fiction archive on web.
If somebody could help me out, I'd really appreciate it 😉
The real question is did you install php and MySQL on the Apache server that you set up?
If yes, then all you have to do is go to MySQL and create a database. You have to look up how to do this using command line codes, or you can install phpMyAdmin to manage your databases. After you create the database, move all the files to your htdocs folder in Apache, then go to your browser and type in localhost://path_to_ your_install_file.php and the install should start to run. (If the doesn't work, you might have to look it up...I can't remember the correct syntax.)
Um, where should I install phpMyAdmin? It comes in a zip and is araound 4.2mb size. Where should I extract it?
Into the htdocs folder of your apache install. That's where you put all the files you want to be available on your local server unless you configured it otherwise. You might try reading the help files for Apache ( http://httpd.apache.org/) When/if you have questions on installing phpMyAdmin, check those docs ( http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/docs.php) These questions aren't really efiction related questions, and it's not that we don't want to help you with them, it's just that the answers to your questions can be found with a little investigation in the right places, and coupled with those answers is vital information you'll need for running your server which is beyond the scope of these forums.
Thanks 🙂
