Help with php.

[denniboy]

Hello, Im very new with this and i need some help..

When i put my php files in /htdocs i want my friends to enter it as a site,

But when they enter the site they only get a "save as" to download the .index file..

Anyone can tell me how to make the php to show as a page?

Sorry if its hard to understand, dont know how to explain it better :?

Ok, I tried that, done exactly what the tutorial says.

But when i try the test.php i get error 500 Internal Server Error.

Follow the steps again. It is likely you did something wrong. If that fails, try a different php version, installing the same way.

denniboy,

Make sure also, that you are saving the php file the proper way!

When saving the file to a php file from a text editor make sure to use
quotes in the file name like, "test.php" otherwise it will not save it right !

The same affect can also be accomplished by changing the Save as Type to all files.

You might all ready know this, I was just making sure you do!

[denniboy]

Ok, i will try all this and then i report back :)

[denniboy]

Could you please download my preconfigured Abyss + PHP package and see if it's working? Please note that EasyAbyss must be run from C:/easyabyss.

What O/S are you using? (Some people has had problems with Win98 and PHP before)

[denniboy]

Goiing to test it.. Im using XP Professional..

[denniboy]

Ok.. The test.php and so working now, everything works for me, But friends get "unable to load page" or sumthing... Any port i need to open in the router or so ?

[Ralph]

[denniboy]

OK, Did it what u said, But others can't enter the site :S:S

[denniboy]

How do i change the port of abyss?

denniboy
If what Moxxnixx, the others and I have told you does not work, then you need to give us a little more information. Like are you using a domain name or just an IP number for your friends to reach the site with? What type of OS, router and connection?

Also if you change the port number from default 80, make sure you change it in your router settings and you may have to forward the name with new port numbers attached at your DNS service.

[denniboy]

Ok, Nothing of this works, I can view the site myself but everyone else gets page not found. Im having a Dlink router but i know how to open ports in it, And i did that.

But i had a problem with my Nvidia firewall, Blocking xampp also. after i uninstalled it it still blocked xampp, I think.. Becuz its still not working.

So maybe its the same with this?

But i dont know why the nvidia firewall blocks it even if its deleted.
I read about some ppls having trouble deleting it too so maybe its not all gone?

Anyone had same problem with Nvidia firewall?

[kev1952]

Have you opened Port 80 in the firewall? Is your router set to accept HTTP requests?

Your problem might be created by D-Link, especially if it's a low-price wireless router.
I had a D-Link. At first, no computers could get on the net. I upgraded the firmware and that fixed that problem. But no server requests got through the hunk of junk. I got my money back and am sticking with Linksys.
I'd say ditch D-Link and get a Linksys or Netgear router if you can afford it.

Try connecting the computer directly to the internet. If that solves your problem, the router is the culprit.
