Status:	Unanswered	TWiki version:	4.2.4	Perl version:	Add-on (MOD) Perl 5.10.0 Apache 2.2.11 WITHOUT ActivePerl
Category:	CategoryInstallation	Server OS:	Windows XP, Windows 2003	Last update:	16 years ago

TWiki 4.2.4 doesnt get configured on XAMPP 1.7.0 and Perl addon 5.10.0-2.2.11. Following are the setups I am using

1.xampp-win32-1.7.0.exe

2.xampp-win32-perl-addon-5.10.0-2.2.11.exe

3.xampp-win32-tomcat-addon-6.0.18-2.2.11.exe

4.TWiki-4.2.4.zip

I am not even able to run configure.pl also. Can someone please post following files if they have got it working on above configuration?

1.httpd-twiki.conf

2.LocalLib.cfg

3.LocalSite.cfg

Have spent almost 3 weeks in configuring TWiki but not going anywhere. Trying to install on Windows XP and Windows 2003 standard edition

Discussion and Answer

I am not familiar with this setup, but here are some comments:

1. Use ApacheConfigGenerator to generate the twiki.conf file for your environment

2. Copy LocalLib.cfg.txt to LocalLib.cfg and fix $twikiLibPath to point to the location where your twiki/lib is.

3. The configure.pl script will create the LocalSite.cfg.

You might want to consider VMware, e.g. run TWiki on Windows within a Linux virtual appliance.

Followed same steps multiple times but it keeps on giving one or the other error. Now I am able to run configure.pl but after updating path's click on next leads to another error.

If someone share's these configuration files, then i might be able to configure manually or atleast figure out the issue in my configuration.

Need to use XAMPP becuase other apps are running off same server and dont wish to create too many environments.
