I have just downloaded Exponential CMS into my Linus(Ubuntu) OS. All installed finebut the problem is how to remove the demon package that was installed with it and then download and install a plain package as mentioned in the ez documentation site. I also noticed that when logged into the demo package i could not still see the install tab. I also need help in calling the site without refering to Exponential directory where the index.php is kept

Hi John,
You can take a while and read the tutorial about Exponential to learn some basics.http://ez.no/Exponential/documentation/building_an_ez_publish_site
Did you install Exponential in the subdir of your www root dir?

Hi Serwatka, Thanks for your response, yes i did install the Exponential in the www directory. The path is www/Exponential, but it will be better to have the index.php directly on the www directory instead of the subdirectory. i guess if i change it to www directory then there must be other changes to be made as well at other files. As you can see i am just starting with Exponential trying to find my way arround and i did appreciate your help.

Hi, you can't move index.php like this, if you want to change dir, move all files from www/Exponential to www.

Hi Yannick, Thanks for your reply, when i move all file to ` www ` do i still need to make changes to any file that will make references to the new path, from www/Exponential to www.

Other alternative solution is to use mod_rewrite and pass all traffic over subdir/index.php if you don't want to move your dir. See apache doc for mod_rewrite.
