How to test that my cakePHP installation is working?

My application path looks like this: home/webadmin/problemio.com/html

In fact, I output it here on the test url: http://www.problemio.com

I installed CakePHP into the /problemio.com directory, but should it live one down at the root of the application, in the /html directory?

Thanks!

Also, I just moved the cakephp install to the root dir, and I got all these errors there:

Here is how it looks like: http://www.problemio.com/cakephp/

Btw, should I just rename that dir as my application name, and put my index.php in that dir instead of the root?

you have set up cake correctly, the errors here are not errors, just warnings. To get rid of them do the following.

1) set recursively cakephp/app/temp permissions to 775 or 777 2) go to cakephp/app/config/core.php and change security salt and security cipher seed. 3) go to cakephp/app/config and create database.php (you have a model there) and configure your database. 4) the last error, you have to reinstall the pcre... (sometimes you won't be able to do it but it may not affect you)

i suggest you follow Janis Veinbergs answer for a correct setting of the folders. The actual configuration works... just some warnings

Your webroot should be set to /home/webadmin/problemio.com/html/cakephp/app/webroot

Your app basically is in the /home/webadmin/problemio.com/html/cakephp/app/ (you modify files only in this directory and subdirecetories)

/home/webadmin/problemio.com/html/cakephp/cake is where cakephp framework code lives and you should not alter any code there as it's 3rd party code.
