Just an update..... I believe the reason my previous attempts did not work was due to several things, I followed the instructions again starting with a fresh XAMPP install, properly configured httpd.conf as per cakephp's instructions. When to http://<myserver>/<wpkg dir>installer and it worked :) mscdex I have to compliment you on such a nice interface, very asthetically pleasing. About to test the client now that I have updated config.xml with: <!-- note1: enabled for wpkgexpress frontend --> <param name='wpkg_base' value='http://wpkg:wpkg1@ws0452/wpkg' /> <!-- note1: enabled for wpkgexpress frontend --> <param name='web_packages_file_name' value='packages.xml' /> <param name='web_profiles_file_name' value='profiles.xml' /> <param name='web_hosts_file_name' value='hosts.xml' /> ________________________________ From: mscdex [mailto:mscdex at gmail.com] Sent: Monday, 21 September 2009 11:29 PM To: Jacob Jarick Cc: wpkg-users at lists.wpkg.org Subject: Re: [wpkg-users] which frontend to use I also use xampp on both Windows and Linux when developing wpkgExpress. AFAIK I didn't have to make any configuration changes specifically for wpkgExpress to make it work.

Keep up the good work. wpkgexpress does look like it will be perfect once I have it running. Im using xampp atm, about to scrap and try fresh again - if I get it working I will post my steps.

There are several existing issues with both with the wiki/documentation and the code itself that do need investigating and/or fixing. However, I admit I haven't had much free time to devote to the project for awhile because work and education have been consuming the majority of my time.
