sugarcrm default folder change

[asimzaidi]

I installed sugarcrm using the installer for windows and it made a folder under htdocs as sugarcrm. I want to know if I want someother folder lets say XYZ instead of sugarcrm..how would I go about doing it?
Any help will be appreciated
Thanks

Hi asimzaidi!

You have to change a file apache2\conf/httpd.conf

there is parameter

DocumentRoot "C:/www/htdocs"

change it and restart appache.

Hope it will help you!

Hi asimzaidi,

You don't even need to do that. Just rename your sugarcrm folder to whatever you'd like (e.g. xyz). You'd access it like any webapp with something similar to http://localhost/xyz. The only other change would be in your config.php:

'site_url' => 'http://localhost/xyz',

You can also have no folder and put it in the root or create a virtual host like pblag starts to describe.

Thank you guys... I will try it.

Actually both of you guys are right but I had to use both of your solutions together. I had to change http.conf and had to rename the folder and also the config.php. In addition to that idex.html file also needs to be changed as it redirects to the default sugarcrm folder.
Thank you guys
