Re: How to allow ~user/xxx.php on Windows XP

"It doesn't work" : Err, what error message do you get ? A 404? 500 error ? or something else.... do you see HTML or PHP source or binary mush or nothing ? Does this only happen with PHP files or can you view HTML files just fine ? http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/howto/public_html.html Cheers, Neil Smith, At 09:03 15/01/2003 +0000, you wrote:

I could not get http://localhost/~username/my.php work on Windows XP. Here is what I have: Windows XP Pro + Appache 2.0.40 for Windows + Php 4.3 I followed tutorial posted at http://internetmaster.com/installtutorial/. It works fine when .php file is in the DocumentRoot directory. In my case, it is the default one Apache uses: c:\program files\apache group\...\htdocs However, if I copy the working php file to a user's Apache web directory, it stops working. In other word, http://localhost/test.php works while http://localhost/~myusername/test.php does not work. Any one can help out here? -- Gang Wang
