I'm new to running Xampp and Bitnami, but as far I can tell Bitnami provides a 1-click install facility for Wordpress similar to the facility I get on my web host.
Xampp is running and I've installed Bitnami at C:\xampp and can see this under the Applications item on Xampp Admin, but I can't see how to install Wordpress on a new site.
I've tried running the installer again and using path C:\xampp\htdocs\my_new_site and I get an error saying it doesn't contain a valid XAMPP installation. How should I be using Bitnami?
BitNami for XAMPP installs the application you select (WordPress, Drupal and/or Joomla!) in the C:\XAMPP\apps directory here is the step by step guide. If you run the installer and selected WordPress, the files should be placed in c:\XAMPP\apps\wordpress. Currently With the BitNami installer you will be able to install only one WordPress (you can add more instances manually though).
