Re: Problems installing/configuring php3

Hello all together, I just installed the apache webserver (1.3.12) for windows and php3. The apache webserver runs but php doesn't. If I start a php script either in IE5 or Netscape 4.7 the result doesn't look like it should. That's the script I used to test php. The file is called "test.php"

Your httpd.conf is screwed up. If you're using PHP3, NOT PHP4, take these lines out:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php AddType application/x-httpd-php .phtml Action application/x-httpd-php "c:/php3/php.exe"

They don't belong. application/x-httpd-php is for php4. So, that leaves you with:

AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php3 AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .phtml Action application/x-httpd-php3 "c:/php3/php.exe"

Which shows that you have nothing valid associated with the .php extension, so add this: AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php You can combine them on one line if you want. Save file, restart apache. +------------------------------------------------+
