installing a website in XAMP

Post by coden4fun »

Hi, I was wondering if someone could give me a good tutorial, or give me step-by-step instructions I need to install a site to my localhost using XAMP?

I've been asked to modify my bosses site, which is pure PHP, but I've only modified php pages here and there in control panels like wordpress, and I've gotten real confuse on how to isntall this site in XAMP.

First, I know you should throw the site directory into htdocs, but whenever I tried to verify any of the work I get 404, and 500 errors depending which file I try to open up.

Please help.

I would prefer someone to IM me through AIM: coden4fun

so I can send them files over, etc...

Thanks!
