[wpkg-users] which frontend to use

[Jacob Jarick]

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' />

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.

	No worries, I will try and work through them :) 
	I appreciate documentation is the last / most anoying thing to
get around to in any project (certianly the case for my projects). 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.
	 
	Cheers :)

	wpkgExpress comes with CakePHP, so there is no need to install
it first. 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.

		http://wpkg.linuxkidd.com/ this one just fails expecting
configuration

		error:
		Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]:

		Cannot connect : Access denied for user

		Is there any complete documentation on setting either of
these up ?
		
		Thanks
