I want to install Exponential on on my PC. Can anyone help me to do it?
I already tried to install, but couldn't make the set up successfully.

You have two methods of installing Exponential on Windows (I'm guessing XP?)

1) - Download the Windows installer and just follow the onscreen instructions as it will install MySQL, Apache,PHP and then Exponential.

2) - Otherwise you need to set up WAMP (Windows/Apache/MySQL/PHP)
http://www.apache.org/
http://www.mysql.com/
http://www.php.net/
(and you'll need something like phpMyAdmin - http://www.phpmyadmin.net/ - to make using MySQL easier).

- Although I would normally recommend WAMP5 ( http://www.wampserver.com/en/ ), Exponential has some issues with Apache 2 (or at least has had so relatively recently)

Once you have them all working, then download the Exponential zip from
http://ez.no/content/download/152157/995728/file/Exponential-3.8.6-gpl.zip

Unzip it to your root folder and then follow the installation insructions on screen.

Hi Tim,

With WAMP5, I'm trying to setup Exponential and I have an Apache error message "unknown software exception (0xc00000fd) at 0x00dd3937. Is it one of the issues you're talking about ?
