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.
