[Julian Tenney]

What do you think might happen?
 
Seriously, follow those instructions and you should be OK. I ran over
this three or four times today and it works OK. Shout if you get stuck,

	OK, we're good to go again. Here's how to install Xerte Online
Toolkits
	onto a localhost provided by xampp on windows. Please follow the
	instructions carefully...
	
	
	Install XAMPP
	- Download xampp from
	
http://www.apachefriends.org/download.php?xampp-win32-1.6.7-installer.ex
	e
<http://www.apachefriends.org/download.php?xampp-win32-1.6.7-installer.e
xe> ;
	- Run the installer, choosing to install apache and mysql as
services
	- Open the xamp control panel and stop apache and mysql
	- Goto c:\xampp\apache\conf\httpconf.conf file
	- Remove the comment ('#') from the following line: #LoadModule
	rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
	- Restart apache and mysql in the xampp control panel
	
	
	Install Xerte Toolkits
	- Download and install the Xerte Online Toolkits from
	http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/xerte/downloads/toolkits.zip
	- Create a folder called 'toolkits' in c:\xampp\htdocs\
	- Extract all the files from the zip to
c:\xampp\htdocs\toolkits\
	
	
	Setup Xerte Toolkits
	- Navigate in your browser to http://localhost/toolkits/setup/
	- On the first page click 'next'
	- On the second page click 'next'. These first two pages contain
	important information for any sys admins setting up toolkits on
a n
	production server.
	- On the third page, enter 'localhost' as the host, 'root' as
the
	database name, leave the password blank, enter 'toolkits' for
the
	database name and leave the prefix field blank
	- On the next page enter 'root' for the database account and
leave the

	- Now rename the c:\xampp\htdocs\toolkits\demo.txt file and to
demo.php
	- Navigate to http://localhost/toolkits/demo.php
	
	
	And away you go. Many thanks to Pat for fixing up the issues
we've found
	today.
	
	
	Have fun, let us know how you get on,
	
	
	Julian
