Good morning,
I hope someone can help be get started; I'm at ground zero and not making any progress. The goal is MySQL with PHP support. I have a simple test page which says --
<p>Hello from HTML.</p> <?php echo "PHP says Hi, too"; phpinfo(); ?>
-- but only the HTML line appears. There seems to be no connection between the page and PHP.
The system is Windows 98. I've downloaded php-4.3.8-Win32.zip. I'm aiming at using the CGI executable version of PHP (php.exe). The distribution file was extracted to c:\php, and the extension dlls are in c:\php\extensions. The php.ini resides in c:\Windows\ and has been edited to show extension_dir = "c:\php\extensions" (I've also tried c:\php but to no avail). The dlls in the distribution were copied to c:\windows\system. I downloaded and ran MDAC 2.8 from Microsoft. The Registry shows a path to c:\php\php.exe.
I can't seem to find anything in the archives. Can you tell me what's missing? Should I start over and try the Windows PHP installer? And if so, how to do that? ...I got an error of "The file you requested (php-4.3.8-installer.exe) is not found on this server." <sigh>
Thanks.
Harold
