Noob needs help.

Hi Steve, just getting started and having a few problems. I'm running on windowsxp and have installed Apache 2.2.13, PHPMyAdmin 3.2.1 ,PHP5 & Mysql5 and all seems to be working fine.
I have downloaded and copied the Xataface directory to my '\htdocs' folder, and the result from 'http://localhost/xataface/dataface_info.php' correctly displays the page to inform me xataface is successfully installed at /xataface.

So I've created a very simple test db in mysql with just one table (name, address, phoneno) to start getting familiar with xataface.

I try to launch the installer.php, and receive the 'Please select your installation Action' page, but without any of the images, clicking on either option just displays a blank white page.

The error log in Apache shows the following ;

[Thu Sep 10 10:04:45 2009] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] PHP Warning: include(install/install_header.inc.php) [<a>function.include</a>]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\\Program Files\\Apache Software Foundation\\Apache2.2\\htdocs\\xataface\\install\\mainMenu.inc.php on line 1

What am I doing wrong ?

Many Thanks, Lee

Try the solution proposed by Dave in this post:
http://xataface.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4174#20994

It is a slightly different problem, but could be related.

In the worst case you can do a manual install (I generally do manual installs myself because they are so quick and easy).

If you do find a solution that works for the installer please let me know as I don't have access to a Windows XP machine to test it out.
