Hi folks, I'm a complete novice and am trying to install Mahara on a Windows 2008 Server on WAMPSERVER. I've been directed throught the forum and Google to the Wiki on this site, but it doesn't appear to be working. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

I understand your pain, Lesley... I installed on a window server a year ago and really was frustrated.  The biggest problem was setting the right permissions on the sub directories.  I tried to dozens of combinations until somehow it finally worked.  I'd start looking there. 

Also I had to move all the directories and files below htdocs up a level... effectively getting rid of htdocs folder.

I hope this helps.  I found that I had to learn a lot more about systems level programming than I wanted to know to get it to work.

Hello Bart,

Would you want to update the wiki with the things you found? Your mahara.org login works there as well.

Cheers

Kristina
