Hi,
Trying desperately to install PHP on my computer.
I have done the following:
I download php4
I unzipped it
Copied all .dlls to system32 directory
edited php.ini in system32 (this is where i might be wrong, what parts do i need to edit, all the install says is, to your preferences)
went to Internet services manager
Clicked properties of "Default Web Site"
Changed configuration in home directory so that .php were executed by php.exe in my default php directory.
now I tested it using this script:
<body>
<?php
$myvar = "Hello World";
echo $myvar;
?>
</body>
I saved in the following formats:
.php, .php3, .php4, .htm, .html
All opened up to blank pages in Explorer when I chose "open with" explorer.
I think it might be my IIS settings. Because I compiled a .bat file of the same script, executed that, and its fine.
My folder options has set .php to be opened by php.exe. When I set it to iexplore, the browser opens but I can't see anything.
My IIS however might be the problem because in the Install file it says click on "default web server" properties. I dont have that, I only have "default web site". I changed the configuration as suggested in the install.txt file. But nothing happens
The other problem might be a wrongly configured php.ini file. I dont know what to change and what not to.
Can anyone help please?
