Hi,

Thanks for that.  I launched Apached via 'Test Configuration' and a message
'Apache 1.3 and PHP 4.2 Running' was displayed.  It's the DOS-based PHP
screen that opens and closes in about 1 second when I try to open a .php
file - so is still related to the 'httpd.conf' file ?  I presume I'm
supposed to have the Apache and PHP windows open while trying to access a
.php file through the web browser ?  Also, eventhough I have PHP installed
as a module with Apache and not as 'CGI' version - do I still need to
insert the "ScriptAlias" line  into the 'httpd.conf' file ? I think I tried
including this line into the .conf file but Apache displayed an error
message something like "Duplicate name error".

Again, Thanks in advance.

Jen.
:-)

I am going to assume that you mean the DOS window.

This is a telltale sign that something in httpd.conf is not correct.
If you are using Windows shortcut links to start Apache, first use the
one that says something about test configuration.  Alternately, start
Apache from the DOS command prompt and your DOS box will stay open.

9.9 times out of 10, this problem is caused by not uncommenting
something like ServerName, or making other errors in httpd.conf.
