then you need to start or stop apache
type;;-
apache -n "Apache" -k Start (or stop if you want) ............

man.. thanks but once again..

i got it worknig sort of in ms does but when i go to start it it says "[error] that is not installed!

.....

and i think that guy will give me the right file.. but it is 14.5 MB and im running on 56k and ive been lagging lately! tell me what u think
 
ok i can restart it now, but i still have to manualy configure httpd.conf

tell me exactly, word for word, how to do it :)
 
there is a readme that comes with PHP
t tells u to add 2/3 lines, just add them to the top of the page, wala
 
i understand now why it wouldnt auto configure it, in the installation manuel it says that it only installs for IIS, PWS,
and Xitami...

unfortunately i never read that at the start :)
 
ok ive configured it but how do i know if it worked? and i have no knowledge of PHP... u mind giving me some sites for tutoriels or something? thanks.
 
make one or both of these files:
<?
phpinfo();
?>
call it phpinfo.php and put it in your web folder.

or

<?
echo "hello World";
?>
hello.php


if stuff shows up yippy
 
web folder?

do you meen open a text document put echo hello world

and then save as hello.php ?

cuz i did that and nothing shows up when i double click it and it ----s up like hell.

explain me man.
 
ok open text program
type
<?
echo "hello world";
?>
save it as hello.php
put it in your htdocs folder in apache open IE type

localhost/hello.php
 
it wont work man..

i can get every thing to save into the document(of course)

but when i enter localhost/hello.php it just doesnt open... :( help me out!!
 
Look up the word "DocumentRoot" in your httpd.conf... that should be the root to your web document..
put the file there. try .HTML first

You might want to put php.ini into C:\WINDOWS or C:\WINNT (for Win2k).. and make sure it is configured to work with <? not only <?php

I didn't read the old threads..sorry if it is repetitive suggestion
 
1. Use MS DOS prompt with copy command
2. Use EXPLORER interface
3. Use FOLDER interface
4. Use somebody's else hand
