Eng65 Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Hi to all, I have a Script that i would like to eventually upload to my hosts Server. Before i do that, i would like to try out the Script on Wamp Server on my PC. I know the paths the host server (/home/mysite/www/ The config.php needs to be set up. As i want to try it out on Wamp on my PC. I am confused to what path i should put in these setting, so i can try the Script on Wamo Server? I have included the script. I would be please if someone could explain what i need to do, and the paths that need to be set for Wamp Server. Thank you Eng65 <? /*********************************** WEBSITE SETTINGS ************************************/ /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // SETTING 1 (IMPORTANT) /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // this is the full path for the root directory of your website define("FULL_PATH", "/home/freedir/www/"); /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // SETTING 2 (IMPORTANT) /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // homepage of your main website ( base domain usually ex. http://www.mydomain.com/ ) define("DIRECTORY_HOMEPAGE_URL", "http://www.freedirectoryscript.com/"); /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // SETTING 3 (IMPORTANT) /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // must include a forward slash at beginning and end !!! // default setup would be "/directory/" // for instance, if your links directory is http://www.domain.com/directory/ // then set this value to "/directory/" [a slash before and after is required] define("WWW_DIR", "/directory/"); /*********************************** MOD_REWRITING SETTINGS ************************************/ // If you want search-engine-friendly url's set MODREWRITE to true // Fancy rewriting is off by default, your server must allow rewriting // You must include the .htaccess file if you wish to rewrite URL's define ("MOD_REWRITE", true); // if true, don't forget to set your .htaccess file define ("MOD_REWRITE_EXT", "html"); // the file extension used for subcategory.xxx pages define ("MOD_REWRITE_DIV", "-"); // the spacer-divider for sub-category-names-with-a-space.xxx (value '-' used in example) $systemvals = array(); ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // DO NOT EDIT BELLOW THIS LINE // DO NOT EDIT BELLOW THIS LINE // DO NOT EDIT BELLOW THIS LINE // DO NOT EDIT BELLOW THIS LINE ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// require_once(FULL_PATH .

trq Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 I can't see how we can explain it any clearer than the comments in the script itself. What part exactly don't you understand?

Eng65 Posted January 30, 2008 Author Share Posted January 30, 2008 Thank you for your help. Just one question though? In the code C:\\wamp\\www\\ there are two backslashes \\ what does this mean?

trq Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 A single \ when within double quotes has special meaning and will escape the next char. Thus, for the single \ to remain intact, it must be escaped. If you where using single quotes it wouldn't be needed. define("FULL_PATH", 'C:\wamp\www\'); Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/88551-solved-how-to-find-the-paths/#findComment-453628 Share on other sites More sharing options...
