trying to get started with cakephp...

[BlueRidgeCliff]

i have installed WAMP on an XP Pro server, and now cake (twice),
followed some example code in the cake docs on login scripting, but
cannot get my app to resolve, i.e., http://localhost/users

the cake default screen says mysql is running and connects to my db
for this app, and i am not using apache mod rewrite, and so have
deleted some config files per the cake docs.  i have read some similar
threads on similar problems, but the posted solutions have not worked

i thought this would be "a piece of cake" - but it is not, as I have
already spent about 20 hours to get virtually nowhere!

thanks for any help

I am new at this also, but have you tried something like
http://localhost/<cakedir>/users where cakedir is the name that you
copied all you cake file to under your webroot

Best option would be to enable mod_rewrite on your box, because then
cakephp will work right after setting the MySQL connection details in
the config file.
