did anybody here tried this installation on wampserver without error?

Hi global.da,
I successfully installed on xampp server, i haven't use wamp server before but i think it will be the same.
If you haven't set up corebos yet, I recommend to install xampp php version 7.4.x and i can guide you.


Klajdi

thank you Klajdi for the update.
i'll try the xampp with php7.4.x and let you know.

Hi global.da 

I think the xamp installation is ok. 

Try to use 'root' as user name , and leave blank the password fields in both cases.
I used to do in this way to create the database.
Hope it will work for you.
Let me know how it's going.

Hi global.da

You have also to do the same thing and for datebase, try it.
/create database
Root User Name: root
Root Password: 

Okay the idea to access and create database is that you need to use login credentials of your phpMyAdmin, you have created during the xampp installation. 
Usually if you let it by default, you can access phpMyAdmin with root / no password. That's why i suggested it. So if you have put any other user name or password to access the phpMyAdmin, it's needed to use those creds, also for MySQL and create database. If you don't remember creds try to uninstall and install xampp, or maybe finding a way to reset the creds.
Let me know how it's going.

Hi Klajdi,

It worked thank you very much.

Can i have another question, how can i update the whole system cause i don't know how to use grit?


Can you assist me with this updater? do we have a step by step procedure?

I love  the new version coreBOS 8.0  (20230317)

Thank you very much!

have a look here: https://corebos.com/docs_grav/getting-st...velinstall

really short it is

- fork
- clone your fork `git clone`
- add upstream: `git remote add corebos https://github.com/tsolucio/corebos`
- install normally

from then on

- git pull corebos master
- load and apply corebos updater changes
