Hello,

I followed the Slim installation instructions and here is what I get on XAMPP:  
visiting: [http://localhost/www/myslimsite/public/](http://localhost/www/myslimsite/public/)

Fatal error: Uncaught Slim\Exception\HttpNotFoundException: Not found. in C:\xampp\htdocs\www\myslimsite\vendor\slim\slim\Slim\Middleware\RoutingMiddleware.php on line _91_  
( ! ) Slim\Exception\HttpNotFoundException: Not found. in C:\xampp\htdocs\www\myslimsite\vendor\slim\slim\Slim\Middleware\RoutingMiddleware.php on line _91_

What’s the problem here? How can I get it installed without errors?

Thanks

Hi 🙂  
You need to show more information, like:

- Where is your index.php
- What configuration do you have in .htaccess
- How are you defining that failing route
- Other information you see relevant

Hi @Luca1

To run Slim 4 with Apache in a subdirectory you can try this:
