Comment on Local Development: How to install Joomla on your local Windows machine by Shane Perris

Hi Edward,

I’ve never used WAMP, but since Joomla is PHP and MySQL, and if you have successfully similar things on WAMP (eg Wordpress) then I can’t see any reason why it won’t work.

Intuitively, it should work just fine as the whole point of packages like WAMP and XAMPP is to be able to run these sorts of things on your own computer.

Hope that helps.

Comment on Fixing Hibernate Problems in Windows Vista by MISS AD

I had the same problem and I solve it (window vista)

To enable the hibernation feature and the hybrid sleep feature, follow these steps:

1. Click Start>>All Programs>> Accessories.
2. Right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as administrator.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type the password or click Continue.
3. Type powercfg -h on, and then press ENTER.

it work for me

Angela: Sounds like some of the system files have become corrupted. You should be able to do a system repair. Press F8 during the boot process and select the repair installation option.

Alternatively, if your sister’s HP came with Vista on DVD, try turning the computer on with the Windows DVD in the drive, let it boot from the disc and select the repair option that way.

Just make sure you “repair” and not “restore”. Restore to factory settings will generally wipe all data and return the computer to the same state it was in when brought home from the shop.

Can I transfer files from my local Joomla database to live site database? Can I develop locally and upload to my live site? or do I have to re-create everything on live site?
