Hi junious,

What is your default browser?

Also, are you running as a limited user or as an Administrator?

The installer will have created a codedb2onphp/[/code] folder next to itself.

Go to codedb2onphp/php/[/code] and double-click on Atom-2007-07-24.exe

You'll need to extract it to your Apache htdocs directory. The default with regular Apache is:
codeC:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs[/code]
The default with Zend Core is:
codeC:\Program Files\Zend\Apache2\htdocs[/code]

***

Also, you need to install two PEAR extensions. Please open up your Command Prompt (Start Menu > Programs > Accessories) and enter:
codepear install HTML_Template_Flexy HTML_Javascript[/code]

If PEAR is not in your path, you might need to first navigate to the PEAR install folder.

***

Shortcuts aren't created this way, but you can just open http://localhost/Atom in your web browser.

If you installed on a port ## other than 80, please open http://localhost:##/Atom instead where ## is that port number.

Thanks for trying the Starter Toolkit,

Hi Akmal,

Thanks for the feedback. The launchpad sneed to be started from setup.exe to work correctly, so one can't just copy the URL into IE. Unfortunately, it has to be set as the default browser right now. The next release will work with Firefox.

hi all

I'm also getting stucked by the above problem. I tried all the above suggestions. But still now it's not working. Apache and php installation is ok. And when i call the phpinfo() function it works properly. But when i try to install the Demo(ie Download (1MB) and install PEAR modules ) i'm getting the following.

C:\Installation Files\web 2.0_db2 webservice using php\db2onphp>C:

C:\Installation Files\web 2.0_db2 webservice using php\db2onphp>cd "C:\Program F
iles\PHP"\

C:\Program Files\PHP>php -r "readfile('http://pear.php.net/go-pear');" 1>go-pea
r

C:\Program Files\PHP>php -q go-pear
Welcome to go-pear!

Go-pear will install the 'pear' command and all the files needed by
it. This command is your tool for PEAR installation and maintenance.

Use 'php go-pear local' to install a local copy of PEAR.

Go-pear also lets you download and install the PEAR packages bundled
with PHP: MDB2.

If you wish to abort, press Control-C now, or press Enter to continue:

HTTP proxy (http://user:password@proxy.myhost.com:port), or Enter for none::

WARNING
We found php.exe under c:\program files\php\php.exe, it uses an unknown SAPI. PE
AR commandline
tool has not been tested with it, if you have a CLI (or CGI) php.exe available,
we strongly recommand to use it.

Below is a suggested file layout for your new PEAR installation. To
change individual locations, type the number in front of the
directory. Type 'all' to change all of them or simply press Enter to
accept these locations.

1. Installation prefix : C:\Program Files\PHP

3. PHP code directory ($php_dir) : $prefix\pear
4. Documentation base directory : $php_dir\docs
5. Data base directory : $php_dir\data
6. Tests base directory : $php_dir\tests
7. Temporary files directory : $prefix\temp
8. php.exe path : c:\program files\php\php.exe

1-8, 'all' or Enter to continue:

The following PEAR packages are bundled with PHP: MDB2.

Looks like http://go-pear.org is no longer available according to this:

It appears that the preferred option is to use:
