Dear PHP [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I am writing to you because I am at my wit's end as to how to get PHP working on my
local machine
The main problem is that Apache isn't seeing my PHP. Whenever I try to run a
phpinfo() test file, all I get is a blank screen. When I right click within my
browser, I can view the html + the php, but apparently the PHP never sees the file.
My operating system is XP. I want (tried to) set this up so that I can develop on
my local machine, before sending files to my web site. The version of PHP that I tried
to install is the latest (php 4.3.0-win32)
I already re-named the php.ini-dist file php.ini. I also moved that file to the
c\windows directory. I also made the following changes to the Apache configuration
file :
Added :
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml
.html
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
This is my second attempt to install PHP. I originally downloaded what was
supposed to be a complete Integrated Development Environment from PHPDEV. I have
since deleted all those files, including complete installations of PHP and Apache, but
whenever I double click on the PHP script interpreter, I get error messages that make
reference to files that I have already deleted. So one of my questions is, WHERE can I
make changes that reflect my current installation. (I have since downloaded Apache
from their site, MYsql, and PHP from php.net)
PLease help. I am about ready to quit
