PHP4 installation on Win98SE, PWS4...

Ahmed, Many thanks for your mail, as it does seem to go a bit further than everything else that was posted on the list. > Go to: > HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/System/CurrentControlSet/Services/W3Svc/Paramet > ers/Script > Map > 1.)

Go to the edit menu and select: New->Key > 7.) Name the key 'phpfile' > 8.) Highlight the key 'phpfile' and in the right pane, > double-click the > default > value and enter 'PHP Script' > 9.) Now create a new key under 'phpfile' and name it 'Shell' > 10.) Now create a new key under 'Shell' and name it 'open' > 11.) Now create a new key under 'open' and name it 'command' > 12.) Double click the default value for the key 'command' and enter: > 'c:\path-to-php-dir\php.exe -q %1' This setting is made (without the -q what does that do?) for the v3 EXE file, but what do I need to do for the v4 EXE? The problem that I am having is that although v3 runs fine, there are two problems running version 4... 1). When running the CGI version, a DOS box opens (some output is produced but it closes to quickly to read) and nothing shows in the browser window. 2). When running the ISAPI version, the script is not processed at all and the script is displayed as plain text. > You must make any directory that will contain php scripts 'Script' > permissions > Consult the documentation that came with your server on how to do this. I know that the permissions are right, becuase v3 runs in the same directory with no problem.
