Greetings. I am trying to get PHP installed and working on a Windows
server - Windows Standard 2007. I've downloaded and installed PHP 5.2.9.
Problem is I don't know how to use this at all. My web server is Apache
2.2 - my database is Mysql.
I selected the Apache module 2.2 during the install, and added support for
Mysql in extensions.
How can make windows start PHP on boot?
When I click on a .php file, the file opens rather than runs. Obviously
I've missed something. There is a command phpinfo - to view the parameters
of the PHP installed - I don't remember how to run this on the command
line.
Any help MOST appreciated.
Also, I'm seeking pointers to beginners documentation for Windows users.
Thanks a lot.
