Can't reach the website

Hello, for the sake of testing on Wamp, I just downloaded a website of mine from the remote server.
The homepage returns a can’t reach the page error, the connection was reset. But I have no idea which it might be, no 500/302/whatever error…
file htaccess is all commented out.

Thanks for any suggestion

Re: Can't reach the website

Check config.php for the path of the Textpattern files.

Chances are you’ve copied it from a Linux server to a Windows box and a bunch of things are different. The line you’re looking is likely something like this:

$txpcfg['txpath'] = '/var/www/example.com/htdocs';

That needs to change to your WAMP version of the same, wherever it is.

Thanks Gaekwad, my config is currently like this

$txpcfg['txpath'] = "C:\wamp\www\XXXX\textpattern";

but, alas, still unreachable…

Re: Can't reach the website

I wonder – if you create a brand new, Textpattern instance, does that work in WAMP?

Also, if you create a phpinfo() file and view in a browser, does that work?

I ask because the problem may be with WAMP and not Textpattern, as no Textpattern error message is thrown.
