Installed, what now?

You'll find the login screen under /symphony
to where you should have been redirected after the installation process. Are you sure you have mod_rewrite
activated? Both, admin and frontend, depend on this apache module.
I have experienced the same problem, if I remember correctly it is fixed in the Apache configuration. Make sure that you have these settings for your Symphony directory and alias in httpd.conf
(in /apache/conf):
<Directory "c:/your/path/to/symphony"> AllowOverride All Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Order allow,deny Allow from localhost </Directory>
To be safe, also check if you have mod_rewrite activated as Nils mentions. You can find it in the same file, just remove the #
before LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
to activate it.
hi, thanks for your reply.
mod_rewrite is enabled, checked it. phpinfo() tells me that it's there, and if I create a .htaccess in an empty folder with Options +FollowSymLinks RewriteEngine On it gives me no errors.
if I call the /symphony folder it redirects me to http://localhost/symphony/symphony/publish/articles/ and I'm getting a 404 error?
edit: I'm running a virtual host here, so localhost is defined as host too. could this lead to this error.
@carste: works! thank you very much.
No problem, good to have this solution documented and reconfirmed.

Hi,
I'm looking for a CMS that helps me to improve my Flashsites and so I stumpled across this symphony thing. It looks like it realy would do me a favour. But now I'm facing the first difficulties.
I'm running symphony on a wampp. The installation was easy and perfect. But now I dont know where I can login. I dont see any admin button or URL to go to. So my first question: where can I login to the admin area???
Next thing, I started to fiddle around after the installation, but everything I found behind every link was a 404. Did I made a failure, is this a common failure?
Thanks leerraum
