Can't connect to install page

Hi
I'm new here. Just installed xampp 1.3.7.1. on my local system and it's working ok. Read the manual carefully up to page 46 but that's where I'm stuck. I type http://localhost/store to go to the install page and get the following lines

Warning: main(includes/application_top.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\server\xampp\htdocs\store\index.php on line 26

Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'includes/application_top.php' (include_path='.;C:\server\xampp\php\pear') in C:\server\xampp\htdocs\store\index.php on line 26

On line 26 there is the following -
require('includes/application_top.php');

From what I've read so far it's the two dist-configure.ini files. Can anyone help me please to set these up.

Thanks in advance

Re: Can't connect to install page

The "No such file" error message is very clear: You're missing the /htdocs/store/includes/application_top.php file.

Thank you!

Problem solved, not all the files in xampp/includes had downloaded so I added them and the install page appeared.
Thanks once again

Re: Can't connect to install page

Hi
have successfully constructed a site on xampp/localhost and loaded the files up to the server. The folders have a 777 file permission and the config files a 444. When the path is typed in
<mydomain/store/zc_install to start the process I get 404 error.
I have rechecked everything but no luck, does anyone have any suggestions please. Thanks in advance.
