Can't load initial Xibo start page

Asked by Steve Morrisby

My PC is Windows XP
I've installed Xampp (mysql, apache etc) and set my root password as described in the Xibo documentation.
I downloaded Xibo Server , unpacked it and put in c:\xibo.

When I try and load the index page at http://localhost/xibo the browser returns:

 "Object not found!
  The requested URL was not found on this server. If you entered the URL manually please check your spelling
  and try again.

  If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.

  Error 404
  localhost
  Apache/2.4.9 (Win32) OpenSSL/0.9.8y PHP/5.4.27 "

Using IE8 other web pages, both on and off line including Xampp related pages load just fine.
I'm at a bit of a loss.

Steve, it is unlikely that C:\ is the web serviceable location for Xampp - it is more likely to be C:\xampp\htdocs\ (you can see some XAMPP FAQ here: https://www.apachefriends.org/faq_windows.html).
