So I hope this is not a silly question. But I'm having some problems with PHP. I'm trying to install PHP using an installer named php-4.3.0-installer.exe, which I downloaded from the PHP Website. I thought everything was working properly, but after trying to install a message board, I am getting an error message. I want to test this message board on my development machine before uploading it to my Hosting Company and trying to configure it there. Here's what I have:
Pentium II 350MHZ Computer Windows 98SE Visual Studio 6.0 Professional Edition, With The PWS From the Options Pak (2nd Disc) MDAC 2.6 DCOM98 The first error message I received was as follows: //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ///////////////////////////////////////////////////// Security Alert! The PHP CGI cannot be accessed directly. This PHP CGI binary was compiled with force-cgi-redirect enabled. This means that a page will only be served up if the REDIRECT_STATUS CGI variable is set, e.g. via an Apache Action directive. For more information as to why this behavior exists, see the manual page for CGI security <http://php.net/security.cgi-bin>. For more information about changing this behavior or re-enabling this web server, consult the installation file that came with this distribution, or visit the manual page <http://php.net/install.windows>. //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ///////////////////////////////////////////////////// I changed the following line in the php.ini file as follows: Originally - ; cgi.force_redirect is necessary to provide security running PHP as a CGI under ; most web servers.

You can ; turn it off here AT YOUR OWN RISK ; **You CAN safely turn this off for IIS, in fact, you MUST.** cgi.force_redirect=1 Changed - ; cgi.force_redirect is necessary to provide security running PHP as a CGI under ; most web servers.

You can ; turn it off here AT YOUR OWN RISK ; **You CAN safely turn this off for IIS, in fact, you MUST.** cgi.force_redirect=0 Then the following message was displayed in the browser window, and I have no idea what is wrong. No input file specified. I have included the complete ini file for your review in case it is needed. In addition, I am using SQL Server 7 with an SQL Database and I have mapped a System DSN to this database. If anyone could help I would greatly appreciate your assistance. I am not familiar with PHP and I have no idea of what it is supposed to do. I also was unable to find a comprehensive installation file that told me what I was to do after the install, or even for sure what every step is in install. [PHP] ;;;;;;;;;;; ; WARNING ; ;;;;;;;;;;; ; This is the default settings file for new PHP installations. ; By default, PHP installs itself with a configuration suitable for ; development purposes, and *NOT* for production purposes. ; For several security-oriented considerations that should be taken ; before going online with your site, please consult php.ini-recommended ; and http://php.net/manual/en/security.php. ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ; About this file ; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ; This file controls many aspects of PHP's behavior. In order for PHP to ; read it, it must be named 'php.ini'. PHP looks for it in the current ; working directory, in the path designated by the environment variable ; PHPRC, and in the path that was defined in compile time (in that order). ; Under Windows, the compile-time path is the Windows directory. The ; path in which the php.ini file is looked for can be overridden using ; the -c argument in command line mode. ; ; The syntax of the file is extremely simple. Whitespace and Lines ; beginning with a semicolon are silently ignored (as you probably guessed). ; Section headers (e.g. [Foo]) are also silently ignored, even though ; they might mean something in the future. ; ; Directives are specified using the following syntax: ; directive=value ; Directive names are *case sensitive* - foo=bar is different from FOO=bar. ; ; The value can be a string, a number, a PHP constant (e.g. E_ALL or M_PI), one ; of the INI constants (On, Off, True, False, Yes, No and None) or an expression ; (e.g. E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE), or a quoted string ("foo"). ; ; Expressions in the INI file are limited to bitwise operators and parentheses: ; | bitwise OR ; & bitwise AND ; ~ bitwise NOT ; ! boolean NOT ; ; Boolean flags can be turned on using the values 1, On, True or Yes. ; They can be turned off using the values 0, Off, False or No. ; ; An empty string can be denoted by simply not writing anything after the equal ; sign, or by using the None keyword: ; ; foo=; sets foo to an empty string ; foo=none ; sets foo to an empty string ; foo="none" ; sets foo to the string 'none' ; ; If you use constants in your value, and these constants belong to a ; dynamically loaded extension (either a PHP extension or a Zend extension), ; you may only use these constants *after* the line that loads the extension. ; ; All the values in the php.ini-dist file correspond to the builtin ; defaults (that is, if no php.ini is used, or if you delete these lines, ; the builtin defaults will be identical). ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ; Language Options ; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ; Enable the PHP scripting language engine under Apache. engine=On ; Allow the <? tag. Otherwise, only <?php and <script> tags are recognized. ; NOTE: Using short tags should be avoided when developing applications or ; libraries that are meant for redistribution, or deployment on PHP ; servers which are not under your control, because short tags may not ; be supported on the target server.

You can enable output buffering during runtime by calling the output ; buffering functions. You can also enable output buffering for all files by ; setting this directive to On. If you wish to limit the size of the buffer ; to a certain size - you can use a maximum number of bytes instead of 'On', as ; a value for this directive (e.g., output_buffering=4096). output_buffering=Off ; You can redirect all of the output of your scripts to a function. For ; example, if you set output_handler to "mb_output_handler", character ; encoding will be transparently converted to the specified encoding. ; Setting any output handler automatically turns on output buffering. ; Note: People who wrote portable scripts should not depend on this ini ; directive. Instead, explicitly set the output handler using ob_start(). ; Using this ini directive may cause problems unless you know what script ; is doing. ; Note: You cannot use both "mb_output_handler" with "ob_iconv_handler" ; and you cannot use both "ob_gzhandler" and "zlib.output_compression". ;output_handler= ; Transparent output compression using the zlib library ; Valid values for this option are 'off', 'on', or a specific buffer size ; to be used for compression (default is 4KB) ; Note: Resulting chunk size may vary due to nature of compression.

So, see session_set_save_handler() and write your own ; session handler with a different mechanism for cleaning up sessions. session.gc_maxlifetime=1440 ; NOTE: If you are using the subdirectory option for storing session files ; (see session.save_path above), then garbage collection does *not* ; happen automatically.
