Creating a test site on wamp
I was wondering how you would create a test site for a forum using WampServer 2.0 ?
I have a backup of my forums and placed the content of the forums folder into the www folder. I then created a database and changed the config to reflect the new database. However when I try it out I get a 500 Internal Error message. |

Im pretty sure you do it the same way, they do the same things but xampp is just better.

Download your preferred package, for your requirements either package will suffice, run the installation program. It will create a local webserver environment that will allow you to restore and run your site back ups on your local system. The only things you have to change are the pointers to your database and path settings to point to your localhost environment.
--------------- Added [DATE]1260326134[/DATE] at [TIME]1260326134[/TIME] --------------- you should have an htdocs folder, that is xampp's root so that is where your vbulletin files should go. You may want to put your vbulletin files in a folder like "forums" because xampps has loaded their stuff in there too... if you copy your vbulletin files directly into htdocs it will replace their index.php file and their menus won't work anymore. |
