How to install YACS under Windows with EasyPHP?

The perfect solution if you are starting from scratch on a Windows development server

EasyPHP is a software package that integrates Apache, PHP, mySQL, and phpMyAdmin. Therefore, to start a brand new YACS server on a Windows platform, all you need is some disk space, the EasyPHP archive file, and the YACS archive file.

[*] Get and install EasyPHP - http://www.easyphp.org/

[*] Launch phpMyAdmin to create a database from within the browser, at http://127.0.0.1/mysql

[*] Unzip YACS files into the web site home page - usually located at C:\Program Files\EasyPHP\www

[*] Rename the existing index.php at the web site home page to index_original.php

[*] Copy the yacs index page at the web site home page - usually from C:\Program Files\EasyPHP\www\yacs\index.php to C:\Program Files\EasyPHP\www\index.php

Now you can start the setup process by launching http://127.0.0.1/yacs/setup.php from your web browser.
