Hello snap,

Just a few questions:

Your test.php looks like this <?php phpinfo(); ?> right?

It is saved as with a php file extension correct?

Did you configure your server with php interpreter and script path and a index.php file?

Last question, will your server load regular html files? through http://localhost/

[snap]

Hello Ralph,

My test.php is corect and has a php extension.

Script path is corret -> http://74.137.232.101/scriptpara.html

Interpreter is corret -> http://74.137.232.101/interpreters.html
(I've changed the TYPE to PHP STYLE, and no results)

Yes, my server will load regular html files.

Heres the test.php
http://74.137.232.101/test.php

When you go to the test.php in the browser it won't load. Hopefully you can help?

Probably a problem with the PHP configuration.

Could you please download my preconfigured PHP package and try it out?

Create a PHP page with the following code and see if it works;

cmxflash,

Tried your preconfigured php package and created a new php page

http://74.137.232.101/test2.php Still no luck.

And yes, unfortunately im running WIN98SE. One day i'll move over to linux.

I too run 98SE well actually 98 that is upgraded to ME but about the same thing as far as capabilities and have had no problem getting the preconfig. package to work from www.abyssunderground.co.uk. Something else is not set right!!!

The MySql package was another story although working well now I had to do the MySql install twice.



For the php5 I used parts of the www.trustabyss.com tutorial as well. It is a bit different, Go there and make sure your install has his recommendations as well.

You may need the Microsoft Data Access Components?


Also, the path to your test.php file should look more like http://127.0.0.1/test.php from the server its self.

Change it from FastCGI to standard CGI, im willing to bet thats the problem :-)

FastCGI isnt supported on 9x.

Actually if you look at a saved screen shot of my script paramaters, Standard CGI is set.

http://74.137.232.101/scriptpara.html

Im going to try installing the Microsoft Data Access Components again.

[AbyssUnderground]

Well I would but the links don't work ;-) They just time out.

links should work now. sorry, for some reason i cant get into my server using VNC, i have to restart it and ping it to see when i can get on and once im logged in VNC, i get no response from a ping, but still able to use it, but thats another story. Right now PHP is my concern

Hopefully you can help

[AbyssUnderground]

I suggest you start again, and follow my tutorial again. 9x is not a good OS to use as a server environment in my opinon. Its too unreliable.

you right, 9x is not good, but thats the only OS which I have a valid cd key. I am planning to go to linux but still searching for the best package to use. I will take your suggestion to re-do everything again.

Thanks

Got the issue with PHP fixed. I got rid of Windows98Se and installed Debian Linux with KDE GUI. My computer has a 250mhz processor and now with Linux installed it runs very very fast.

PHP works perfectly.

Thanks :)
