Since weeks I try to install Laconica like on “http://laconi.ca/trac/wiki/InstallationWindows” described, however, always something does not function. When I last, for example, in the command line “c:\xampp\php\pear>.\php go-pear.phar” give has, malfunctioned “CLI” all at once any more and did not have to be finished. Therefore, I am real already with him irritate at the end.

My request: Would be you able to do Xampp for Windows (ready configured according to installation instruction) as a folder (ZIP or RAR) for me to download, so that I can immediately start under “http://localhost/laconica”? (I know that then I have to create user and database, to import laconica.sql and to correct config.php and to add darcs as path in windows environment variables)

For me this means very much, thank you a lot for your help!

As for the xmpp daemon question you had, I’ve actually been away from working on pretty much anything for a small while so I’m a little behind about it – you might try checking with one of the people who already have it running – or if one of you guys comments here it’d be great to share the knowledge!

First, thank you VERY much for this script. I finally have a testing laconica server on DH.

It has only one error. It need to copy another directory from XMPPHP, otherwise laconica will crash when we click on IM option. Just add the following line:

cp xmpphp/XMPPHP ../extlib -R

just after

cp ‘PHP Markdown 1.0.1m/markdown.php’ ../extlib/
cp -r php-openid-2.1.1/Auth ../extlib/
cp OAuth.php ../extlib/
cp xmpphp/*.php ../extlib/

and the problem is gone… :-)

By the way, do I need to enable the xmpp daemon to send IM messages? Or this is just for “notice broadcasts offline”, as described on config.ini? And what is the best way to activate it on DH?

Best regards.

I went ahead and ran:

:set fileformat=unix

From inside of vi on each of those files. If you copy a set of them again you should be fine. Sorry about that!
