I am trying in vain to get php running. I have win98 and apache1.3.6 server running. I unzipped the php-4.0.6-Win32 into c:\php I then downloaded php406-installer and I ran that, did a standard install. I was told that the installer hadn't edited my httpd.conf file for apache and i would have to do this with accordance with the php\install.txt file. Which has the following instructions:- If you unzipped the PHP package to C:\PHP\ as desribed above, you need to insert these lines to your Apache conf file to set up the CGI binary: ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/" AddType application/x-httpd-php .php Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php.exe" So this I did, so my httpd.conf file within apache looks like this:- # For example, the PHP3 module (not part of the Apache distribution) # will typically use: # #AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .phtml #AddType application/x-httpd-php3-source .phps ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/" AddType application/x-httpd-php .php Action application/x-httpd-php "c:/php/php.exe" But I shutdown and restart apache and try to run load a .html file in my browser <html> <head> <title>Untitled Document</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> </head> <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000"> <?php echo "Hello World<p>"; ?> </body> </html> But nothing happens. I have tried to be as verbose as possible in the hope that someone can help me out here. Thankyou.

I tried this David, but I load it into the browser and still I get a blank page. I even tried having a button on an .html page that opens the .php page when it is clicked, but still nothing.

Right I tried this so far:- 1) I tried putting my file in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\htdocs\ and replaced the index.html file with my own file 2) I tried changing th submit button to <form name="form1" method="post" action="http://localhost/cgi-bin\Untitled-1.php"> <input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit"> I get this screen: Internal Server Error The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. Please contact the server administrator, [EMAIL PROTECTED] and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error. More information about this error may be available in the server error log. None of these things worked. Does the php.exe have to be up and running (it is)?

Wayne, I can't answer yr query directly (I had the same problem). But try downloading this http://sourceforge.net/projects/foxserv/ for yr platform. It is self installing apache/php/mysql.

Hello, I continue to get the following error message. Warning: open(/tmp\sess_b423cc9c8cb09f7e9c50aea387a0093e, O_RDWR) failed: m (2) in Unknown on line 0 Warning: Failed to write session data (files). Please verify that the current setting of session.save_path is correct (/tmp) in Unknown on line 0 After some searching I learned that I needed to change the session save variable in php.ini. I have so far changed it to c:\temp, c:/temp, \temp, /temp. I have given the everyone group full control over that temp dir. The error message never changes. I have php.ini in %systemroot%. The everyone group has read permissions to php.ini. It looks like it is never actually reading the file, but I don't know how to verify this, or fix it if true. I am running php 4.0.6, the full zip package. It is running on IIS5 and Win2K server SP2. The test.php script which displays all the php variables works fine. Any ideas? -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Do not reply via email, the reply address is strictly for spam. Thanks!

Hi all, Something realy odd is going on: check this: <?php // returns the current time in millis.. is working correct echo "" . time() . "<br>"; // SHOULD return the time in the format HH:MM:SS -- Is NOT working... "echo" returns empty string??? echo "" . strftime("%T", time()) . "<br>"; // Works fine - get the time in the form HH:MM:SS echo "" . strftime("%H:%M:%S", time()) . "<br>"; // SHOULD print RDT or CET or EST but i ONLY get the string "Romance Daylight Time" ?? echo "" . strftime("%Z", time()) . "<br>"; ?> Can somebody please tell me what is wrong? I use Windows NT 4.0 with SP 6.1a, IIS 4.0 and PHP 4.0.6 (latest version). Thanks advance, Arjen van Efferen (NL)
The key here is this line: AddType application/x-httpd-php .php What this means, to apache, is that it will only send to the php binary files that end in .php. Two options: first, if you are going to have php in almost all files, you can just add .html to this line after .php. Second, rename any files that have php in them to .php files, and instruct Apache to look for index.php files (I forget where this is... I believe it's towards the bottom of the default httpd.conf file) Another thing that I noticed when I was trying to install php and apache in windows was that it is very easy to put in both sets of descriptions... the one for the module and the one for the binary, so just be sure you didn't do that => Ben -----Original Message----- From: Michael Duxbury [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, July 08, 2001 5:37 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] installing php on apache I am trying in vain to get php running.

You say. . . "But I shutdown and restart apache and try to run load a .html file in my browser" Did you mean a .php file? My guess is that this is likely to be your problem. Unless you make the change I specified, apache _will not_ parse any php code in a .html file (or any other file, except a .php). If you did everything else exactly as the documentation told you, and apache otherwise runs correctly, AND you can invoke 'php foo.php' on the command line and it will output correctly (make a file that contains '<?php phpinfo(); ?>' in the c:\php directory, and php yourfile.php. If you see a ton of stuff scroll by, php is working), then there is likely to be a problem with your configuration. This will be difficult to find without being able to see your httpd.conf file.
