I downloaded:
Windows Binaries
PHP 5.0.4 zip package [7,488Kb] - 31 Mar 2005
md5: fff10991a8e6f3b36ee567eb236ae3f4
This is the current BETA release of version 5.0 of the MySQL database
server.
apache_2.0.54-win32-x86-no_ssl.exe 16-Apr-2005 15:13 7.8M Installer
Pack
I did a developer install and manually load Apache on localhost:8080
I get the welcoming screen. Also MySql seems functional as I tested the
tutorial using world.sql The setup had no errors.
Then I installed PHP. Also added LoadModule php5_module
"c:/php/php5apache2.dll" to httpd.conf
and updated the AddType entry -- Renamed file to php.ini and moved to
c:\windows copied php5ts.dll to c:\windows\system
I wrote the <? phpinfo() ; ?> in notepad and copied it to the
htdocs subdirectory. My instructions state that I'm suppose to be able to
open this in a browser (IE) and view a PHP banner with system information.
I have Apache server started and MySQL loads automatically.
The Problem: All that happens is that a black screen with some white print
flashes by (it looks like what are the correct swithces) dos type file. And
then nothing loads into the browser. I have the file set to be opened with
Apache but I've tried with IE also. If I use the "open as web folder" option
I can see the files that are in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs
I also tried with simple.php
<?php
print "Hello Web!";
?>
which does not display in the browser but creates the brief opening of that
dos-like file
I suppose this is a simple matter but I've read a lot of posts to no avail.
Thanks for useful ideas.
Regards, Stephen
