how to configure Magento in my local xampp - magento

Now i want to install magento, I downloaded the files from magentocommerce.com and extract it and run the installation file. In the second step once i entered the DBhost,Dbusername and DBpassword and navigate my installation to the next step it throws an error "*o Database server does not support the InnoDB storage engine.o Database connection error." Can anyone please guide me to install magento in my local.
Regards,
Arun

Meanwhile, there are some tutorials available on how to install Magento under Windows using the XAMPP stack, e.g. the one in the Magento Wiki.
Note that even though mySQL supports InnoDB since mySQL 3.23.34a, you'll need to install at least mySQL 4.1.20 for current Magento versions (see Magento System Requirements for more detailed infos).

Install Peoplesoft and connect to existing Oracle DB

Is there a guide that can help me install PeopleSoft, PeopleTools, Tuxedo, Weblogic etc. and connect it to an existing Oracle DB configured for CS?
I'm fine with doing the setup from scratch, but how do I skip the DB creation and just configure the rest to connect to a DB called CSSND2.
Can anyone help with some steps?
The guide I followed is:
http://psst0101.digitaleagle.net/step-by-step/
Oracle has official installation guide for every PeopleTools version.
This is the one for the latest version, 8.55: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E68526_01/psft/acrobat/PeopleTools_855_Installation_for_Oracle_122015.pdf
If your version is lower, google 'PeopleTools Installation guide ', replacing by your version.
Install all the software on your server, add the details of your schema/database to the tnsnames.ora file, then you can add the App server domain, Process Scheduler domain and web domain. See the guide for details on installation and configuration

Using Redis with magento 1.9

I have a magento setup where I am using one box for apache server and one as mysql server.
I want to install redis in this installation. I am not sure how I can achieve that.
My questions are:
On which box should I install Redis?
Is there any step by step tutorial for such setup? As i am new to this.
How can I configure magento to use redis server?
Thanks in advance.
Since you are only using 1 frontend server, I would set it up on that as it will be faster and take additional load off the database network connection.
1.9 has the Cm_RedisSession module included in the codebase and it's a doddle to setup, take a look here for step by step instructions;

Joomla 3 backend log in issue

I built my site on my local machine on MAMP and I migrated the finished site to my remote server. I used Akeeba Backup and Kickstart and installed before making the final back up and then setting it up on the remote server.
However after doing so, I am no longer able to login to my admin. The passwords have not changed and the only thing I get is a yellow pop up message above the login box that says "Warning".
I reset my passwords several times but no success. The site works without a hitch so I don't think something went wrong on the migration but that wouldn't explain why I no longer can't log into my local instance.
I am a little perplexed. I am not sure if there is a bug with Akeeba Kickstart 3.9.
Most probably your remote server has the newer PHP version. The reason is that new PHP version generates the MD5 in a different way.
I also had the same issue once ... please try the following steps...
in you DB's Joomla user table
Backup the password'hash of your desired user.
Now go to this site and get the new MD5 hash of your password.
INSERT the new MD5 hash into DB.
Now try logging in again.
I found my issue even though my local MAMP was using PHP 5.3 and my remote server PHP 5.6 the actual problem was that for some reason the Joomla User plug in was disabled during the migration which caused me not being able to log in.
I went into my DB and set the flag from '0' to '1' and it resolved the issue. I am not sure how the parameter was changed but it was the culprit.

Install Sample data fails on joomla 1.5

I tried and installed the JA Blazes quick start template (which includes all the modules and extensions, as shown in their live demo) for Joomla 1.5 on my local server and all worked perfectly well, but when I installed it on my domain server, the install sample data fails. I do see the DB being updated, but the installation just never ends. The installation of sample data goes on forever. Is there a way I can figure out if something went/is-going wrong ?
Thanks in advance..
Sounds to me like the connection with the db server is timing out.
If you can work out where the sql files are stored within the distribution (usually /installation/sql/ ) you could insert the sql manually using phpMyAdmin or from the command line.
If the demo installed fine on your local machine there is no need to 'install' it at all on the remote server.
FTP all of the files up to the server.
Use phpMyAdmin locally to export the database
Use phpMyAdmin on the remote server to import the backed up sql.
Finally edit the configuration.php file with the database details and paths for the remote server.
A final alternative would be to utilise Akeeba Backup or similar to package up the site and move it from local to remote. This is a fantastic tool that works around most memory limits and other annoyances on shared hosting.
