Problems in localhost

[eluser]orabines[/eluser]
hello

Im having some problems with a website that I got from my server .. It works perfectly in the server but when i downloaded to make some changes on my localhost, it wont work

my server address is like: www.example.ca and the folder in the root of my server is example.ca

now in my localhost im typing: http://localhost:8080/example.ca/htdocs/index.php ...

when i type that in my localhost, it works but it shows me eveything without css !! and the images links dont work ..

Plus, if i click in any menu for example: about us .. it will take me to

http://localhost:8080/aboutus/ and it doesnt work anymore ..

what am I doing wrong ?

You need to change your base_url() in your config.
Change also the database settings in your database.php in the config.
And check all the settings to match your local server.

Hi Research assistant .. thank you for answering me ...

Well I did change the config files such as database.php and routes.php

but I dont get to make it work ...

This is how it looks in my web server:

root/groupa/example.ca/htdocs/index.php ---> this php file just calls my index.php view.

the directory continues like this:

root/groupa/example.ca/htdocs/system/application/views/index.php ---> this index.php is the home page.


NOW, ON THE OTHER HAND:

This is how it looks when I put it on my localhost:

appserv/www/example.ca/htdocs/system/application/views/index.php ---> and here again the home page of the website

BUT FOR SOME REASON, IT DOESNT WORK WHEN I MAKE THE CHANGES ... COULD YOU HELP ME TO KNOW WHAT i NEED TO PUT IN ROUTES.PHP to make it work?

thank you very much for your help

Regards,
