Wordpress

Assuming you want to run wordpress with apache/xampp on a local testserver. After setting up xampp and testing phpinfo() download wordpress and copy it into htdocs. Then you need to edit wp-config.php as instructed on the wordpress-installation-page. Next step would be executing wp-admin/install.php in your browser. Unfortunately nothing happens and the site stays blank. Then try the following:

• Restart your computer ;-)
• Edit install.php (fe. add some html-testing code at the beginning of the file). By doing this you make sure to have proper access to the page. Anyway an errormessage (fe. 500)would have informed you before about wron access settings
• Try this
• Try this
