[pmwiki-users] Installation Problem

[ABClf]

Control where your PmWiki folder is located : should be in htdocs.
In my case, local website is "quinze" :
d:\xampp3\htdocs\quinze\
I meet pmwiki at http://localhost/quinze/pmwiki.php

You can check php running by going to : http://localhost/
should be redirected to : http://localhost/xampp/ ; find a shorcut for
phpinfo.
