1.9.2 on win2003, EasyPHP with issues

posts: 4 United Kingdom

Hey,
I just set up the 1.9.2 build with the EasyPHP/MySQL package on a virtual Win 2003 server machine. I am running into a couple of problems and would appreciate any help:
1. I can't get Shoutbox to show up. It's enabled as a feature.
Looked for documentation, but nothing there.

2. I have Forums enabled as described in the Documentation, but I just
cannot get the Create button to show up. So I was looking through the
www/tiki directory and found the .php page that let's me do that. So I
created a forum and it works fine. But that's obviously no solution
when I want other users to be able to create forums.

3. As with the forum page, I can't find the usergroup admin and user
admin pages off the menus. But I can type in the URL and access the
pages. Any idea why they woulnd't show up in the default admin menus??
And I guess if I am missing those, there must be more features that I
am not even thinking about...

4. I can't get the user administration to work where I allow self
registration with email acknowledge (it doesn't send the email).
and I can't find where to specify that email server...

Goto Admin->Modules and select it to display it.

Expand the Forum menu to reveal the Create Forum options

Read the assistant module where it talks about clicking :: or the folder icon next to menu options.

Email acknowledgement wont work on localhost setups until you also install and configure a suitable mailserver or configure your PHP to use SMTP server of your ISP.

thanks! I got all these solved with your instructions, except the email part. I went to the php configuration file and set
mail function
SMTP = mymailserver

and it;s not working. But I think I also need to provide login credentials. Where?

In the mean time, I got an error on file upload:
