Can’t run install.php locally

  • I’ve been trying to run the install.php script for version 2.3 to install a local version of wordpress. Firefox either asks for a helper application if I try to browse from File –> Open File
    or if I try to browse from File –> Open Location
    I get the following message from my Apache server:

    Not Found

    The requested URL /home/del/www/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php was not found on this server.
    Apache/2.2.3 (Ubuntu) PHP/5.2.1 Server at localhost Port 80

    I’m stumped. As far as I know Apache should simply send the script to PHP and it should install. Are there settings that I need to check/alter to make this happen? Permissions perhaps?

    Thanks in advance for any help here.
