Thanks so much Ryan,
Sorry, i missed, am using mysql 5.1.48
You have pointed out some important ideas that i think are a preliquisite
for mifos, my installation was:
Apache and mifos are under a folder called Mifos Install i.e.
C:\Mifos Install
I have installed JRE instead of JDK but am aware both can allow
mifos to operate so long as its not for developing mifos
while configuring mysql, i didnt set any user or password but
instead used root with no password
i have no idea what local.properties and
applicationConfiguration.custom.properties files are.
About the guide, i followed instructions at
http://www.mifos.org/knowledge/install-guide , printed a copy to repeat
installation for several times.
pls guide me on how to set up the files u mentioned and will having no
password affect my settings for mifos.
regards
