Yes, got it now but you are missing the ftp username. You have given me host and pw only for the ftp.
Oh sorry

OK, your site is installed with the standard sample data and Akeeba backup installed. Hope that is OK Johan
You may want to check the admin email addresses as I just had to guess as to what you wanted.
Phill, You did it, do you know what was wrong?

Thank you!!!

I have no idea Johan. I used a slightly different install method to save time. In this case I had a fresh copy of JA Social already installed on my local machine so I just used Akeeba to create a backup of it and uploaded that backup to your site. That way it saves me a huge amount of time uploading as the achive is a lot smaller than all the individual unpacked files. It also uses the Akeeba installer rather than the standard J one. The tables are exactly the same and the script that inserts the tables is the same except that is inserts the sample data and sets up the tables in one hit rather than two.

Phill, I have tried to install the quickstart package on a local WAMP server but it seems something is not configured correctly as I am getting loads of PHP errors on the home page. Therefore, I’d be very grateful if you could install in on my server as well. Is it just the FTP and database details that you need?

Unless I’m missing something, I’m not certain how one is able to install something remotely onto a localhost WAMP server.
Are you wanting assistance in installing your template onto your actual WEBHOST server?

Based on Phill’s instructions, he installed it on a local host and then backed it up using Akeeba and transferred it to a web host. I tried to install it on a local host, but it seems something is not set properly so I am not able to back it up and transfer it. So, yes, I would like help installing it to a web host. Cheers.

George, drop me a PM and I will send you my akeeba backup file if you would like. You could then install from that yourself.
If you want me to do a full install for you I would need ftp details and mysql details.
On your local WAMP I am guessing you are using the latest version which uses too late a version of PHP. One of the great things about WAMP is you can install lots of different versions of PHP. In the WAMP menu click on PHP>Version>Get More Versions then download version 5.3.0. Run the .exe you dawnload then when you go back to the PHP menu you will be able to select 5.3.0 as your PHP version.
