Hi all, thank you so much for your speedy responses!
Connie: just to clarify, I am trying to navigate to it through the server, not by opening the local file. (I only tried opening the file itself after that didn't work)
I'm trying to figure out how I might have installed it incorrectly. I have already tried
1) Extracting directly into a folder within my Server2go htdocs folder
and
2) extracting getsimple and then just copying and pasting all the files into the folder within my Server2go htdocs folder
I tried deleting the folder completely as you suggested and making a new folder and doing the above again. Still the same thing
As for 2), sorry, I don't understand the migration ... is that for when I am on an actual website FTP? I am just testing locally on my computer with Server2go right now, I have not tried to upload it to a webserver at all yet.
yojoe: thanks for the suggestion! If I absolutely cannot get server2go to work I will try that. And I do have admin rights on my computer.
EDIT: OK, this is weird. I got it to work in Chrome. I went to http://127.0.0.1:4001/foldername and it redirected me to http://127.0.0.1/foldername/admin/install.php which failed. Once I manually put the :4001 back in it worked. :/ Well, at least it worked!
