XAMPP local installI'm trying to play around and see if jcow will be for me or not, but I don't want to test on a live site. I'd like to test locally, and I am using xampp.
I ran a search, and didn't come up with anything here, but I do get random hits on the net of people asking the same question, and some saying they did it, but not actually documenting how they did it.
Is there any documentation that someone here can forward me a link to so I can test this out?
Is there any directions that can be provided? I was able to get Wordpress installed without issue, but it's not what I need. When I create the database, and try to install I get a "cannot connect to mysql server" error.

hit the button below: i agree to this license....
delete install.php in the folder htdocs/jcow
it is possible that your xammp installation doesn't recognize php short tags like for ex. <?= "hello world"; ?>
for this you need to change your php.ini.
I too have jcow installed on an xampp localhost and it runs great. By default the php.ini with xampp has short tags disabled so that will need changing.
Older versions of jcow required the ioncube loader module to be installed, but the latest versions are 100% unencrypted so this is no longer needed
re: spanishearlThanks for that. Collation, or something different? I know that wordpress wants utf8_unicode
[EDIT]: Nevermind, it installed. I don't know why it wouldn't yesterday....
I think I messed something up though because after successful installation, and deleting the intall.php file, I click go to your Network, and get an access forbidden error...
