    Default Error 404 accessing example.com/store in xampp tutorial

    I am Newby starting to use zencart and following the tutorial, when I have unzipped en-car t -v1.3.7.1- ful l -patched-07052007 to htdocs folder and then renamed to store - I can't access the zencart welcome screen in my browser as per instructions in the zen cart tutorial using http://www.example.com/store as the URL? XAMPP for Windows installed OK, Apache and everything else running.

    Something I am missing to do?

    Did you edit the C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file? Also try shutting down your firewall.

    I am having the same problem. I'm very new to this sort of thing so sorry about this question...how do I edit that file and what do I edit it to. There is no firewall here.

    I am having the same problem of finding the welcome page. I have XAMPP installed and running. Last time i tried to correct 404, I downloaded a virus. This free software is not so free so far. What do I do now? I have a website but no shopping cart, therefore, i need help. thanks Von Piercey

    How is ZenCart responsible for you getting a virus??

    As kobra pointed out, the virus warning is not from Zen Cart.

    It is a false positive reported by your anti-virus software as indicated by this note on XAMPP's site.
