Can I install on stand alone PC

Have just seen Zen-Cart in Practical Web Design magazine.

I would like to get to grips with this before uploading to my server. Using WIN XP, can I install on my PC. If so what support packages do I need please. ie. PHP and MySQL.

Any help gratefully received.

Thanks

Re: Can I install on stand alone PC

I use WAMP Server for design purposes on my pc. It installs all needed packages and I have never had a problem with it :thumbsup:

When the world gets in my face I say Have A Nice Day.

Re: Can I install on stand alone PC

Hi Merlin1969
Hi Tina. Thankyou for the swift reply. Have now installed WAMP server.

Now what..

The Zen installation.txt says to use:

http://localhost/zen/zen_install/

in the address bar of IE. ok??? I do that but nothing happens.

Newbie, here so please be gentle !!

Re: Can I install on stand alone PC

Hi Tina
Can you help me again please. I am having trouble with the MySQL part of Wamp server. The install part works up until that part. then stops telling me that it cannot find the "test@localhost" database.

Am I doing something wrong, or could you point me to any help page or info please.

Thankyou in anticipation
