XAMPP and upgrade - How do I set it up on localhost?

So:

I’ve a copy of Textpattern · 4.0.1, and I will be upgrading to Textpattern v.4.0.5.
Good so far.

Now:
1.) I’ve transfered the entire sodden site to my machine
2.) Installed XAMPP lite
3.) Installed Textpattern (the version I am upgrading from)
4.) Imported the mysql database from the working site on the web

Then I got these errors on the diagnostic:

File Upload Path is not writable: /home2/padre/public_html/textpattern/files

Temp folder is not writable: /tmp ?

Apache module mod_rewrite is not installed ?

C:\xampplite\htdocs\textpattern-4.0.1\textpattern\setup\ still exists

Here is the diagnostic:

Textpattern version: 4.0.1 (r888)

Pre-flight check:

RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php </IfModule> ————————————

Help?

Re: XAMPP and upgrade - How do I set it up on localhost?

File Upload Path is not writable: /home2/padre/public_html/textpattern/files

Temp folder is not writable: /tmp ?

You need to correct your paths:

1. Open up your config.php file, and change your txpath to C:\xampplite\htdocs\textpattern-4.0.1\textpattern.
2. Go to your Advanced admin preferences and change your files path to C:\xampplite\htdocs\textpattern-4.0.1\files.

Apache module mod_rewrite is not installed ?

You need to enable mod_rewrite in order to get clean urls.

C:\xampplite\htdocs\textpattern-4.0.1\textpattern\setup\ still exists

Delete the “setup” folder.
