>I have to work on a website (in php).
I downloaded index.php and when I loaded it through my wamp
localhost php installation, it gave some errors mentioning the file
names, from includes\ so I downloaded them.
now it is just saying
"No configuration file found and no installation code available.
Exiting..."
It is not even telling the filenames it needs to run that site
offline.
Which minimum folders/ sites I must download to make the site run
from localhost.
of course it would depend on how the site is coded, but still, are
there some sure minimum folders/ files that a php installation would
keep - like cgi-bin/ cgi-sys are mandatory for a perl based work.
Doesn't matter if pics/ graphics/ database are not there. I just
want to run the index.php from localhost.
Thanks.

Hi V,
it looks like the site is looking for configuration files, the message
you mention is not a PHP error or warning.
You have to go through the code to see what files it is looking for
and what the installation code is.
What files it needs is totally dependent on how the site is
programmed. No general solution possible.
You could just try copying files and see when it starts to work.
Or start from the other side and copy everything, then delete files
one by one until it stops working.
Good luck,
Richard
