Moodle ist normalerweise einfach anzubringen, sobald you†™ve Apache/PHP 5/MySQL Betrieb erhielt.

Aber der Installation Index für Moodle 1.8 versagt, â ˜Next†™€, nachdem er die Datenbankinformationen, schlagend eingetragen hat gab mir einen unbelegten Schirm.

Anbringen ist unter XP adaequat. Aber das Problem isn†™t begrenzte auf Vista: John McGrath und andere auf moodle.org Report ein ähnliches Problem unter XAMPP/Win2000. John errichtete manuell seine Konfiguration Akte, um Moodle Betrieb zu erhalten (http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=64692).

Ich war in der Lage, Moodle 1.8 unter Vista erfolgreich anzubringen, das seiner Annäherung folgt.

1. Bringen Sie das Apache web server an. Ich benutze Apache 2.2.4.
2. Bringen Sie MySQL 5 an (die neuesten (5.0.41) Arbeiten des Installateurs ohne eine Anhängevorrichtung unter Vista. Vergessen Sie nicht, Tor 3306 in Ihrer Brandmauer zu entblocken, und stellen Sie sql-mode=““ in Ihrer my.ini Akte ein; Moodle mag nicht strengen Modus).
3. Bringen Sie PHP 5 an. Ich verwende Version 5.2.3.
4. Downloaden Sie den neuesten beständigen Bau von 1.8+ von http://download.moodle.org/download.php/stable18/moodle-latest-18.zip.
5. Unzip die Akte in Ihre Apache Dokumentwurzel (c:\apache\htdocs, wenn Sie die Anweisungen befolgen, die in Schritt einer verbunden werden). Ich benannte das Verzeichnis c:\apache\htdocs\moodle18 um, also könnte ich mehrfache Versionen von moodle für die Prüfung später anbringen.
6. Verursachen Sie ein Verzeichnis für die Speicherung von Daten, die außerhalb der Dokumentwurzel (ich verwendete c:\apache\htdata) ist.
7. Verursachen Sie eine leere Datenbank für Moodle 1.8. Ich verwendete

I initially tried the msi installer for PHP 5. Unfortunately, it installs only PHP under CGI, which although it has some performance and security issues, might be ok for a quick and dirty development environment.

But the installer is badly broken. You’ll get an error something like

PHP Fatal error:  require_once()[function.require]: Failed opening
required 'SAM/php_sam.php' (include_path='.;C:php5pear') in
sam_factory on line 1

After fighting this for a couple of hours, I ended up installing manually anyway. I used this procedure to get PHP 5 running under Vista:

1. Install the Apache webserver.
2. Get the current version of PHP 5 from http://www.php.net/downloads.php#v5. (It’s 5.2.3 at this time). Get both the zip file and the PECL zip file (which includes extensions).
3. Uninstall any previous installations of PHP 5 (Start > Control Panel > Programs and Features). You may have to reboot your machine.
4. Disconnect from the Internet. Turn off your firewall. Turn off your virus checker.
5. Turn off User Account Control (UAC).
6. Get an administrator prompt by going to All Programs > Accessories. Right-Click “Command Prompt� and choose “Run as Administrator�
7. Use the command prompt to manually remove directories containing previous PHP installations (like C:\Program Files\PHP…)
8. Go to the directory where you’ve downloaded

Vista constantly asks for confirmation of actions when you’re installing software. This is designed to prevent worms and trojans from doing their thing, but some installations that worked under XP will fail under Vista because of this behavior. You can fix it (and stop the constant nagging) by stopping “User Account Control” as follows:

1. Go to Start > Control Panel > User Accounts.
2. Click on “Turn user account control on or off�.
3. Uncheck “Use user account control (UAC) to protect your computer�.
4. Click “OK�.
5. Reboot.

Installing Apache under Windows XP was trivial. Not so, under Vista. Creation of the Apache service fails. The conf directory can’t be set up by the installer, probably due to permission problems.

I finally got it working with the following procedure. I used the latest version of Apache (2.2.4) and Windows Vista Home Premium.

1. Uninstall any previous installations of Apache Web server (Start > Control Panel > Programs and Features).
2. Turn off your firewall (Control Panel).
3. Stop User Account Control (UAC).
4. Get the most recent version of apache from http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi and put it on your desktop. Rename it to apache.msi
5. Start > All Programs > Accessories
6. Right-Click “Command Prompt” and choose “Run as Administrator”
7. Manually remove directories containing previous apache installations (like C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation…)
8. Change to your desktop folder (At prompt type cd desktop)
9. Type “msiexec /i apache.msi” on the command prompt.
10. Run through the Apache installer. I’m running a development server, so I left the domain and computer name blank. Choose the default server on port 80 for all users option. Change the installation directory to c:\apache.
11. Reboot.
12. The little Apache feather won’t appear on the task bar under Vista with the present version of Apache (2.2.4). To remove
