franciccio-ITALIANO Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Between XAMP, WAMP and Laragon, laragon is presented as simpler. So I installed Laragon, to develop the site locally with processwire and transfer it online without manual rewriting of the paths. But now I have no idea how to install processwire on laragon. Could someone tell me about an online tutorial, if it exists? Or just the basic steps... Also, I've already installed and written something on my processwire online site, so on laragon I have to install a copy of the installation already in place, right? Can this be done? Is it more complicated? Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dotnetic Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Laragon is the best local Webserver for Windows. Good choice. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotnetic Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Here is a more detailed answer with the steps you have to take: Download the ProcessWire Zip (or use one of the other install methods) Unzip the file in your web root and rename it to the name how your project should be named Open Laragon control panel Click "reload" button for Apache This automatically creates a virtual host with the name of your folder like "processwire.dev" (I don't remember what is the default domain of Laragon, because I changed it to .localhost) You can then navigate in your browser to this URL You will see the ProcessWire installer and just have to follow the steps 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragan Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 You can even skip the first few steps when you add PW as a "one click app". Either with or without Composer. https://processwire.com/talk/topic/21796-one-click-processwire-in-laragon/?tab=comments#comment-187287 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franciccio-ITALIANO Posted November 16, 2019 Author Share Posted November 16, 2019 Hi, I'm not sure how to install Processwire on Laragon. In which folder should I move exactly the decompressed folder of processwire? I put it on C://laragon/www/processwire-master and then I clicked on C://laragon/www/processwire-master/install.php but the installation does not start. Only, Clicking on it only shows me the list of contents of the file install.php. Can someone please help me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragan Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 @franciccio-ITALIANO Start the server and then open http://localhost/processwire-master/ in your browser. (or, if you have enabled it in Laragon, http://processwire-master.test) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotnetic Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 You might even use http://processwire-master.localhost, which is better, because I had sometimes problems when using a subfolder instead of a subdomain. Sorry, @dragan said that also in his previous post. Did not read it completely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bernhard Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Just use the root user with no password (of course only for development). See 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
