Hi, I think you are faring quite well at the moment.
If you want to see your website under a real domain name you have to set up a DNS server, or get your page registered with one. However so long as you are just developing with it, don't bother with it. It will work as soon as your files are transferred to their final destination at your provider.

September 2008 15:58 An: cake-php@googlegroups.com Betreff: Still working on CAKE install uner xampp 1. xampp is up and running so I have apache and myql running services 2. I still struggling to make any sense of CAKE's arcane installation directions I jave gone back to the CAKE manual: "3.2.2 Permissions: /app/tmp directory for a number of different operations. Model descriptions, cached views, and session information are just a few examples.As such, make sure the /app/tmp directory in your cake installation is writable by the web server user." I looked at permissions on xampp and all subdirectories and see it is "read only." Assuming this is source of my installation issues, I attempted to uncheck the read only and apply. Nothing changes. Ditto for CAKE directory and its subdirectories. Going to "advanced" properties doesn't help. I get warnings about some sort of Wizard that will be jeopardized if I allow sharing and went ahead anyway. Apparently these files are attached to a domain and XP will not allow me to change the security and remove the read only status. Any suggestions?
