So I'm trying to install geeklog on my machine in order to be able to mod it for a site im making. I'm using Apache 2, and php5 and phpMyadmin.
Here's what my config file looks like:
$_DB_host = 'localhost'; // host name or IP address of your DB server
$_DB_name = 'geeklog'; // name of your database,
// must exist before running the installer!
$_DB_user = 'root'; // MySQL user name
$_DB_pass = 'secret'; // MySQL password
// The table prefix is prepended to each table used be Geeklog to avoid name
// collisions with other tables that may already exist in your database.
$_DB_table_prefix = 'gl_'; // e.g. 'gl_'
// +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
// | (2) Paths |
// +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
// Note for Windows users: It's safe to use the forward slash '/' instead of
// the backslash '' in paths. Make sure each path starts with a drive letter!
// This should point to the directory where your config.php file resides.
$_CONF['path'] = 'C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/htdocs/geeklog/'; // should end in a slash
// You only need to change this if you moved or renamed the public_html
// directory. In that case, you should specify the complete path to the
// directory (i.e. without the $_CONF['path']) like this:
// $_CONF['path_html'] = '/path/to/your/public_html/';
$_CONF['path_html'] = $_CONF['path'] . 'public_html/';
// +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
// | (3) Site Settings |
// +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
// Make sure this is the correct URL to your site, i.e. to where Geeklog's
// index.php file resides (no trailing slash).
$_CONF['site_url'] = 'http://localhost/geeklog/public_html/index.php';
// Some hosting services have a preconfigured admin directory. In that case,
// you need to rename Geeklog's admin directory to something like "myadmin"
// and change the following URL as well. Leave as is until you experience any
// problems accessing Geeklog's admin menu.
$_CONF['site_admin_url'] = $_CONF['site_url'] . '/admin';
// This is the return address for all email sent by Geeklog:
$_CONF['site_mail'] = 'admin@example.com';
// Name and slogan of your site
$_CONF['site_name'] = 'Geeklog Site';
$_CONF['site_slogan'] = 'Another Nifty Geeklog Site';
And the line in my libcommon file is:
require_once( 'C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/htdocs/geeklog/config.php' );
What should I do?

What's the problem? Did you install the software form ../admin/install/install.php ?
