CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi evryone,

Can somebody please help me, dunno if i'm missing something here or not but I can't seem to find the install.php file from the downloaded zip archive.

I've ran a search on my PC, tried to access it from within a browser like the installation guide says but it doesn't exist.
I've downloaded it 3 times now and it doesn't seem to be in the zipfile.

can anyone shed any light?

And the installer doesn't start when config.php is empty and the install-folder is available?

Ronny

the install folder is available, config.php is empty also....

And what happens if you go to the folder using IE/FF, does the installation start?

That's an old information - where do you get it from? It needs to change ...

Current version does not have an install.php. Type only your URL (after uploading CMSms). CMSms will see that it's not installed and redirect you to install wizard (/install/index.php) .

yes! at last i'm getting somewhere!
thankyou ronnyK! I know It's a simple thing but i'm new to this cms/ftp etc stuff so steep learning curve for me.

I went to http://local host/cmsms/install and the page popped up...so here goes...

thanks for the prompt replies  

thanks cyberman, I got it from  http://wiki.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php ... ck_Install

Goodluck Fred,

the idea is that when there is an no/empty config.php and an existing install-folder, that the installation will start. For security reasons (to make sure that others won't start the installation by typing the URL/install/index.php) it is wise to delete the install-folder after installation. If you're only running local, that's no problem off-course.
