checked and double checked the installation of php into abyss

d loaded the phpconfig.exe to help me with the .ini file

still got no luck runnin php scrips in htdocs root or any sub directories of

eg of failure = Can't open output.php!

is it a permissions thing ?

by the way, is there a similar ftp server I can install along side this http server, which by the way, is great...

Cheers

I really cannot offer much help in regards to your php setup except that php does successfully work with Abyss. Chances are somewhere along the lines you probably missed something small...

As for running an FTP server alongside Abyss, yes, it is possible. Abyss runs on port 80 and an FTP server usually runs on port 21.

Check out http://www.guildftpd.com/ for a pretty good FTP server. Good luck :)

i also must agree with vbgunz, it sounds like you didnt install PHP properly. Which version are you using by the way? I recommend the self installing file...

Install PHP following the step by step guide at http://www.aprelium.com/abyssws/php.html . Everything should work fine without even editing php.ini at that level. You can test your settings on a simple script for example.
After that, and if you need really that, start changing php.ini .

Let us know more details about your system... The easiest way to install PHP:

1. Download the bigger Windows binary distribution ( which is in a ZIP file )
http://www.php.net/get/php-4.3.1-Win32.zip/from/a/mirror

2. Extract it in a folder (no matter where)

3. You'll see a file: php.ini-dist

4. Copy that file to your Windows directory and rename it to php.ini

5. Open it (c:\windows\php.ini) with Notepad or your favourite text editor

6. Add a line (no matter where): cgi.force_redirect=0 and save the file

that's all... PHP4 will work with any server.
When there's a newer PHP version available just overwrite the files keeping your existing php.ini

There's a detailed instruction how to set Abyss.

about the win FTP server. Check out my favourite:
http://www.pablovandermeer.nl/ftp_server.html
requires 467kB memory, looks nice, works very well, no install

Good luck!

ko77ko,

This is very simple-to-understand for newbies like me. Thank you very much for taking the time to write it out like this. :-)

P.S. cgi force redirect is ENABLED and PHP is working fine for me.
