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 --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Cake PHP group.

Very Frustrated - No help for newbies !!!!
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 --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Cake PHP group.

Another wiki page that references configuration for XAMPPhttp://wiki.cakephp.org/faq:how_do_i_set_up_mod_rewriteIt relates to virtual hosts but the configuration suggestions there might help you key in on the root of the problem.

Dave, I'm relatively new to cake and had a difficult time setting it up as well. As you said, irc is undoubtedly useless for in depth questions or serious help. Your best bet for help is this group. If you can outline your webserver directory structure relevant to cake and any changes you've made to configuration files, I'll try to help you out.

Re: Very Frustrated - No help for newbies !!!!
Dave,If you are one of the people who come to IRC and expect everyone to drop what there doing and answer your question in 30 seconds, good luck. I am personally on the IRC almost 24 hrs a day, today I have not been since I have been trying to get a wireless network running. So my advice be patient first.And if you are the same person that came online and asked a question, did not get a reply right away then said F*** it and left the IRC, and I sent you a PM telling you that help is there in the IRC you have to be patient, I would prefer not to help you for your attitude and lack of respect for my time, and others who offer help to people in IRC for free. -- /*** @author Larry E.

Please see # http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/core.html#options # for more information. # Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes ExecCGI AddType text/html .shtml AddHandler server-parsed .shtml AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl # ReadmeName footer.html # # AllowOverride controls what directives may be placed in .htaccess files. # It can be All, None, or any combination of the keywords: # Options FileInfo AuthConfig Limit # AllowOverride All # # Controls who can get stuff from this server. # Order allow,deny Allow from all /Directory Also, make sure to uncomment this line: #LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so After doing that, restart apache. That should do it for you. If not, post back and I'll try to get you more information tomorrow.
