Geeklog Forums

I am currently using homestead for my site, but have been instructed by one of my co workers to use your program to create my site. Well the problem I am having is I can see to find out where to get started and what steps to take. Basically I don't know where to begin and what to do after that. So if anyone has detailed instructions on what to do I would appreciate it. Also if you could e mail me at young0076@comcast.net

Thanks

Erm, did you try reading the installation instructions?

bye, Dirk

Erm, the problem with your "installation instructions" is that they still have the effect of appearing to be written by geeks for geeks.

I know that it might look simple to a geek, but it isn't for a newby. Unless you simplify the thing further and use actual examples in your php files, to describe what "paths" are -- as an example, some of us STOOPID people can't make sense of it all and end up taking hours to complete what should be a straight forward install.

At the risk of offending some of you -- well, what the heck, you deserve it because geeklog took so long to install, and now I can't complete the install after all -- many other similar CMSs are a breeze to install and are very friendly to us STOOPID newbies. You might choose to get your mane up because of this message , but whether you like it or not, there are many more like me out there so sooner or later you geeklogians have to make the intsall process better or write better IIs

Now for my problem: what is the "path" supposed to be in the config and lib-common files? my "public" folder is httpdocs, I uploaded all files in the public_html directory here and also the other directories and files (can't really put them elsewhere, the server won't allow me to do so).
However, all my attempts to rename the paths as per the IIs have met with "Site not found" error when I tried to complete the process via http://mysite/admin/install/install.php

Cheers, and I hope you don't take it too hard
Daniel
