Which version of Xampp supports which version of Joomla? I installed Xampp 1.7.7 successfully, and Joomla 1.5.6 successfully. However, when I go to http://localhost/joomla15/administrator to login, I get the following message in a good number of lines:

Strict Standards: Non-static method JFilterOutput::ampReplace() should not be called statically in C:\xampp\htdocs\joomla15\libraries\joomla\html\html\select.php on line 130

I suspect maybe Xampp/Joomla version incompatibility. Am I right or what should I do?

Hi modijew

Any particular reason you're using Joomla 1.5.6? That is a long way out-of-date and there have been several security holes fixed then.

2.5.4 is the latest version of Joomla.

Switch to Wamp. See my Guide. The link to my Guide is in my signature!

Version 1.7.7 runs Joomla! 2.5 and 1.5 and those in between absolutely fine on Windows 7. This is installed as default installation without any changes. So it is possibly down to either change you may have made to the configuration, or indeed issues with the way in which particular sites have been installed or modified.
Provide information on the changes you have made to either aspect.

Any version of XAMPP can be used with Joomla, as long as it meet the requirements of:
PHP 5.3 +
MySQL 5.0.4 +
Apache (with mod_mysql, mod_xml, and mod_zlib) 2.x +

See http://www.joomla.org/technical-requirements.html for the requirements

The messages you are seeing are PHP are warnings from PHP. If you don't want to see them, edit the /xampp/php/php.ini from your PHP installation and change the error_reporting to the following:
Code:
error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_WARNING

I would add a caveat to my last post -

Earlier releases of Joomla! - 1.5.13 and below - were not compatible with PHP 5.3.

See the topic at the top of this forum - which you might have seen sooner if you had actually posted to the right forum to begin with.
