Resolved: Vista, Xampp, WordPress Error finding file

Note: Sorry for the wasted post. I just realized that all of the files weren’t there. My ftp connection went down and I missed the error.

In an effort to copy my site locally to try to do some development without messing up my live site, I installed Xampp on my local vista desktop. Apache and MySql seem to be running fine.

I copied my wordpress site and db(and modified url to localhost, etc.)

When I pull up the homepage on localhost, I’m getting the following error.

Warning: require_once(C:\xampp\htdocs/wp-settings.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\xampp\htdocs\wp-config.php on line 22

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘C:\xampp\htdocs/wp-settings.php’ (include_path=’.;C:\xampp\php\pear\’) in C:\xampp\htdocs\wp-config.php on line 22

I assume it has something to do with the forward slashes & back slashes in the path, but don’t know how to fix that.

Any thoughts on how to fix this?

Thanks
