    Ok, this is probably a stupid beginner’s question, and I apologize for that, but this is my first foray into Joomla or your templates, so I really am a stupid beginner.

    After doing a Quickstart install over a fresh 1.5 install, I have a com_rsgallery2 directory in my components directory, but in the control panel I can’t find any menu or control for rsgallery2, nor does it show up as one of the installed components. What do I need to do to get it to show up in my control panel?

    by the way, this is LAMP and PHP5.

    If you install okie, you will see menu RS gallery 2 when you click on menu Components in the administrator

    That was what I was afraid of. I have now tried two installs, one on 1.5, and the other on 1.0.15. In both of them it is the same thing. Everything looks good on the template, but where the gallery should be, it is just blank. When I go to components in the admin panel, there is no sign of RSGallery.

    Am I misunderstanding how this is supposed to work? I am doing a fresh install of Joomla, with a fresh DB, and then immediately copying the contents of the Appropriate Quickstart zip into the install file structure, overwriting all files. Isn’t that how it is supposed to work? Am I doing something wrong?

    Ok, I just didn’t understand how the Quickstart worked, and I have everything working fine now. Sorry for wasting people’s time.

    Have you installed sample data when you install quickstart?

    I have now, and everything is working fine. I just didn’t realize that the Quickstart was a completely self-contained install, and was putting it over the top of an existing installation.
