I just installed the OpenEMR Version 3.1.0 in my computer (Windows XP). 
XAMPP is  1.7.2 version
Everything went fine. 
When I open the openemr to login,   it opens fine and I can log in fine , but I get lots of deprecated messages.

You have to set the $web_root within the interface\globals.php file as the full working directory (ie C:/xampp/htdocs/openemr)

Also, make sure that you performed the necessary changes to the php.ini file.

In the globals.php, there are TWO settings.

WEBSERVER_ROOT and WEB_ROOT.

WEBSERVER_ROOT, I have is C:/xampp/htdocs/openemr
WEB_ROOT, I have is /openemr

Now, when I change the WEB_ROOT to C:/xampp/htdocs/openemr, and then open the logib page, I get a BLANK page.  When I set it back to /openemr and open the login page, I get the login page.

About the php.ini, what changes do I need to do there?

Please help.

the globals.php should be as follows:

$webserver_root = "C:/xampp/htdocs/openemr";
$web_root = "/openemr";

The changes needed to /xampp/php/php.ini are as follows:
"short_open_tag = On"
"display_errors = Off"
"register_globals = Off"
"magic_quotes_gpc = On"
"max_execution_time" set to at least 60,
"max_input_time" set to at least 90
"memory_limit" set to at least "128M"

Alternatively you can download our OpenEMR Server made by EHR LIve that will do all of that as a self-installer.  You can download from:  http://www.ehrlive.com/download/openemr/310/generic/OpenEMR Server 3.1.0.exe

If you do the self installer make sure to uninstall the current xampp program by first uninstalling the apache and mysql services and then deleting the xampp directory.  Otherwise the self-installer won’t run.

In your original message above, the php.ini settings are allowing too much reporting.  PHP tends to report a lot of messages which are useful for debugging but a real pain during normal operation.  Check your settings under

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; Error handling and logging ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

error_reporting  =  E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE
display_errors = Off

Usually this error_reporting is what is causing this.

I made the recomended changes to the php.ini

Still the same problem.

Nobody else had this issue ?

After the changes are made to php.ini try restarting apache.  If you don’t know how to do that just restart the machine.

Here is what I have.

Display Errors = OFF
Error Reporting
Default = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE
Development = E_ALL | E_STRICT
PRODUCTION_VALUE = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED

I changed the Production value from ~E_DEPRECATED to ~E_NOTICE and now these messages are gone.

Thanks for the help.
