PHP 4.0 and Apache 1.3

Anon

Hello,

I'm new to all this and I cant seem to get php working on Apache 1.3

I have tried numourus different downloads, and followed 2 or 3 different tutorials, nothing seems to be working.

I can get apache to run properly, but PHP wont work. When I load up a php page, where I should see configuration information, for example I see nothing. So its obviously not reading the php code.

Any idea what I might be doing wrong?

Thanks in Advance

Download Foxserv. or any one of them..
And install it you don't have to do any configurations..

Thanks very much, this program worked perfectly! I wish I had known about it when I first started playing around!

I have got it working, however I'm finding that I cant save files with the extension .php
Notepad keeps adding on .txt on the end of my files. How do I stop it from doing this? Should I be using a different program to write my php scripts?

Hi,
There are lot of php editors use one of them..
or go with notepad..
In notepad
At the time of Saving php file save as "ex.php" instead of ex.php..
Or change file formats to "all files" and save it as ex.php.

hello,
thank you for this very good tip. I had the same problems and after uninstalling all the attempts and installing FoxServ I got php access.
The whole configuration is now running on localhost. When I change the hostname in httpd.conf, my.ini and php.ini to the hosts name or the IP-Adresss I cannot get access to mySQL via the phpMySQlAdmin!
Do you have an information to solve this problem?

kind regards
