first fresh install of PW - it cannot find admin-url

[horst]

Hi,

I'm very impressed of ProcessWire and want to test it local, so that I can see if I can handle it to use it for my website.

So, I'm very new to ProcessWire and have installed the latest stable Version from ZIP to an Apache on Windows.

Installprocess is perfect: everything green

When it comes to "7. Use The Site!" - I can access the root url

but not the admin-section: "http://localhost/processwire/"

From the RootSite I also cannot go to another page: /about/ - /site-map/ - /templates/

The directories/files in htdocs are:

/site/

  |--assets/

  |--install/

  |--modules/

  |--templates/

  |--config.php

/wire/

  |--core/

  |--modules/

  |--templates-admin/

  |--config.php

  |--index.config.php

/index.php

/.htaccess

Maybe there is something wrong with the automatic created .htaccess-file?

(I cannot find any of the url-parts within it: processwire about templates site-map)

Maybe need change RewriteBase /pwdir/ in .htaccess?

Hi Radek,

yes you are right, that was needed

I has to comment out the line:  # RewriteBase /

and also my Apache httpd.conf wasn't set right

In the FAQ I have found a Thread about how to test for that:

http://processwire.com/talk/topic/1-what-is-the-admin-login-url/#entry24096

And yes, I've better should used the search-function before posting this thing

No problem and welcome to PW forum

You can try dev version, because will be stable soon and any testing are welcome.
