[TYPO3-english] Access old installation without index.php

[John Simon]

Hi Bernd,

Thanks for your quick help.
I was hoping for a very simple solution without moving any files but your option doesn't seem too difficult.

Thanks again,

Adrian

I don't know wether you can access it via an renamed index.php, but you can move typo3 into a subdir and work from there

move all TYPO3-related files from webroot to webroot/t3dir including the original index.php renamed back.
keep watch for relative symlinks (typo3_src -> ../typo3_src-4.5.?)

you may need to remove realurl or reconfigure it.
also references to baseurl, as it changed with the subdir

beside that I got a lot of installations running in subdirs

and be sure to clear all caches ;-)
