Re: Very Frustrated - No help for newbies !!!!

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for the responses and sorry for delay in getting back.

I certainly didn't mean to rock the boat and apologies if I came over
as being a bit heavy...

 Larry, I certainly was NOT the person who was abusive in the IRC.

I will get back to things in the next day or so and work more closely
through the suggestions as I have time.  And I will certainly document
my findings and contribute them if they are of any help to future
newbies...

I'll be back with my findings.

regards, Dave Porter

Thanks for your help.

http://localhost confirms that cake is happy 
http://localhost/cake displays the directory structure.

Acording to the manual this confirms that everything is OK ( or NOT ???
)

cheers, Dave

Just can't get started !!!!!!

2006-05-23 Thread DavePorter


HI everyone,

Read lots on Cake and it looks exactly what I am looking for

Tried working through the blog tutorial, but just can't get it going.

I am using Windows XP Pro  have Apache-Friends XAMPP installed in:
c:\program files\xampp\
with htdocs being where all the development stuff goes.

So I then have Cake installed in the htdocs folder ( app folder, cake
folder, vendors folder ).

So for the blog I'm just entering it in the app folder.  But the
localhost to view posts/index just does not work !

I placed phpinfo.php in the folder and it works fine !
http://localhost/app/views/posts/phpinfo.php( here is it's
location.)
So apache/php/mysql are all working fine

I know this has to be something really simple, but it's got me stumped.

Appreciate any help !

regards, Dave

Very Frustrated - No help for newbies !!!!

2006-05-23 Thread DavePorter

HI All,

I still can't get things working

I cannot find a definitive document that tells me how to configure
things.

There are mistakes in the docs for configuring Apache  ( AllowOveride
All  spelling error ).

I found three occurances of AllowOverride in my httpd.conf.  Do I
replace all of them with All OR which one of the three is the one !

I find a number of different versions of the manual around the place.

This newsgroups appears very quiet.  The irc was no help - no one
responded to my requests for help !

I came to CakePHP after looking at RoR and I'm close to going back
there.  As I know php and not Ruby I thought this would be a way to go.

Can someone please help or recommend a better solution.

regards, Dave
