[Moodle] Help Please

[BJ Honey]

It sounds to me, initially, that your HTTPD (APACHE?)  service may not be
running....is this on a Linux  server?...or perhaps a windows
permutation?....try entering your domain name....without the
localhost:88888....something along the lines of
http://mydomain.com.au/moodle18/index.php....

Just a thought...

The other alternative is to check that your config.php file has all the
correct entries that you would expect to respond, provided the Web server is
running...

Can anyone please help with the following problem?

 

I am new to Moodle and am trying to set it up a computer to run Moodle.  I
have used Moodle a little so know what it is about.

 

I have downloaded the latest Moodle 4 Mac (1.9)

I have put MAMP into the Applications folder and have it running OK.

In the MAMP folder  there is the Link to Moodle.  

I opened this in Firefox (latest version).  

The link is http://localhost:8888/moodle18 which is what the folder is
called.  So all should be OK.

BUT I just get an error message saying the

requested URL /moodle18/ was not found on this server. ????

 

I also have Moodle running on my old computer.  This is a site they my
friend Ellen set up about 18 months ago and neither of us can remember the
admin password, so I cannot add or edit anything.

 

I have check the computers one against the other and the settings appear to
be the same.

 

< div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;
margin-left: 0px; ">So I am stuck - the new one won't open for me to set up
and the old

one I cannot get anything I try to work as the administrator password.

 

If anyone can shed any light as to what my next move could be I would
greatly appreciate it.

 

Thanks in advance
