They should both be set to the same ScriptAlias... ScriptAlias /php4/ "c:/php/" ... Action application/x-httpd-php /php4/php.exe For reference, the ScriptAlias statement is in basically an Apache script shortcut... let's say you have a LONG directory pathname ("c:/program files/apache group/apache/conf" for instance) which you don't want to keep retyping in your script wherever it is referenced. Then you can create a ScriptAlias for this directory ("/apacheconf/" lets say for our example above) and then uses this directory alias anywhere in your conf script (or other apache scripts) and save yourself a lot of typing and headache. Also, if you change your directory structure (where things are installed) then you only have to change the ScriptAlias line and not the entire file :) Make sense? -- Andy Hoffman Web Developer Bristol-Myers Squibb email: andy.hoffman@bms.com
