Take a look at this.

You can install XAMPP on your laptop and work on your site.
Off the top of my head I can't remember where it is, but I think there a version you can run off a USB drive. - Thanks,
jim

- Retired, but build and run websites for organisations of school leaders and others - e.g. http://www.icponline.org, http://www.aspa.asn.au, http://www.appa.asn.au
- There is a version of XAMMP that will run on a USB drive at portableapps.com/apps/development/xampp . I have not used it, so I can't comment on how good it is.

I have used WAMP for a while without a hitch. You can configure it to match your server environment exactly and install Joomla sites or any sites for that matter on your laptop or pc...
After your done use Joomlapack to create it on your live server....

All worked well till ...
I have downloaded form www the backup installed it on the XAMPP Sql and worked great, managed to complete a lot of work offline
.
Then i have tried to backup from XAMPP to re install to the www. and all seemed to go well till I tried to unzip the backup file with WinRAR and a diagnostic message shows that every file is corrupt. And it will not even export the file.
anyone know what is going on here?? I ve tried to both Backup methods in the configuration/ advanced setting and same thing happens.

- Yeah the backup was made with joomlapack. I have no idea where to even start looking at the problem, as far as i know it could be with to configuration of joomlapack or XAMPP. The mysterious thing is that it work fine when i backed up out of the live site to the XAMPP and i can imagine why it shouldn't be different on the way back :shock:
