flbruegger 0 Report post Posted July 22, 2021 Will someone show me where I can find the steps to install a working version of TNG on a local server. I am about as green as they come and need the "installation for Dummies" process for installing on a local Windows 10 machine. I have installed Ver 13 on my webserver and can get into admin. So I am not a complete novice. The instructions fo the web are very good. I now want to install ver 13 on my local Windows 10 machine for development and testing before moving to my website. So far I have: downloaded ver 13. Properly installed: WAMPServer 3.17 on D drive D:/WAMP64. I get the green W on the taskbar. Windows Service name MySQL80 MySQL connection id is 11 Version 8.0.25 My community server - GPL Apache 2.4.46 PHP 7.3.21 SQL 8.0.21 Ports: HTTP 80 MySQL 3306 created a virtual host - "tngsite" on D:/tngsite executed tngsite/readme.html and can display the TNG Installation Instructions page Copied tgn downloaded directories and files to D:/tngsite (with no changes. straight copy) skipped step 2 because I want the installation on my local machine Step 3 'set permissions:' then "Please wait, attempting to process" nothing happens. freezes. What have I missed? Thanks to anyone that can show me the way. Lee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You may need to 'point' the local browser to the www folder of your WAMP instal e.g C:/Program Files/Ampps/www/tngfiles1304/ in the admin setup paths.

flbruegger 0 Report post Posted July 22, 2021 Chris, Thanks for your input. I should have put more detail in but I entered into my browser "tngsite/readme/.html' (tngsite = virtual server) and I get the installation screen. When I go to step 3 set permissions nothing happens. Really trying to follow the instructions Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
