[Solved] New install problems - installer not running
Hi all,
I've downloaded and installed Apache 2.2, PHP 5.2.17, MySQL 5.5 and Vanilla 2.0.17.10 onto my Windows 7 machine.
Apache is up and running as is MySQL. I've copied the Vanilla files to the correct folder (Apache/htdocs/vanilla) but when I browse to localhost/vanilla I just get the "Index of /vanilla" page listing all the files/folders and the installer doesn't run.
I tried changing the permissions on conf, cache and uploads (removing the read-only flag).
I suspect the issue is with PHP but I'm not sure how to debug/proceed and I can't find any posts by people with the same issues.
I'm using Google Chrome but I've tried IE9 too.
Any ideas?
Cheers.

Otherwise, for your issue, php module is surely not loaded, check the apache configuration.0
