Your test file is named test.htm. Is your web server set up to send htm files to the PHP engine, or is it set up to parse .php, .phtml, etc., not .htm? It's unlikely it's a permissions problem, because the web server is serving it up. A php file is parsed and not executed. The problem is the web server doesn't know it should be doing something with the file.

I even added the path (which is not said in the install text) and now get a HTTP 500 problem... I has to be something with permits, but I'm clueless. Thanks, Jim "Jim Thome" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> escribi= en el mensaje [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... Did you follow the instructions for configuring PWS found in the file install.txt? Specifically, did you configure PWS to use the PHP executable on .php files? Jim >>> "C (F+sar Monroy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 06/12/02 07:59PM >>> Hi Group: I recently downloaded PHP4 to try it in my Win98/Personal Web Server. Even after several installations following instructions, my server refuses to interpret PHP scripts... 1. Downloaded PHP 4.2.1 for Windows 2. Unzipped to C:\PHP 3. Edited and copied PHP.INI to C:\Windows 4. PWS works fine at http://localhost 5. Added virtual folder C:\PHP to PWS and set execute privileges 6. Rebooted computer 7. Wrote a simple PHP file: <?php echo "This is a test"; ?> 8. Opened browser and pointed to http://localhost/test.htm The page displays correctly but the string THIS IS A TEST never showed. Can anyone point me to what I did wrong? -- PHP Install Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP Install Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP Install Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
