RE: [PHP] Installing PHP probs
it's a piece of cake for windows... two steps: 1) download the .EXE and double-click on it or download the .ZIP and unzip it somewhere (usually C:\php) 2) configure restart your webserver if you download the .EXE it'll configure any non-apache server for you. if you use apache, you'll have to configure a few things manually. read the README and INSTALL files and documents and things... all the info you really need is in the documentation... -Original Message- From: Kyle Smith [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, August 01, 2001 9:26 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] Installing PHP probs Can someone quide me through the process of installing PHP on a windows system (my computer) because ive followed what it says in the doc files but it doesnt work so anyone who has done it, please help! -lk6- http://www.StupeedStudios.f2s.com Home of the burning lego man!

Exactly what error are you getting? The install is pretty straight forward.

You need a webserver on your computer to run php locally. If you're running windows98/me you can use Personal Web Server, which is free and included on your Win98/me cd. It's no big deal once its set up, you still see the scripts' output through your web browser. You can forget about the web server once its in place and working.

RE: [PHP] Installing PHP probs
you dont have to have a server running. just use the CGI binary. ...and if you're using windows - why not just use apache... it's free, easier to install/configure than PWS (yech!) and it has *MUCH* better documentation and support than microsoft can ever offer. :-) -Original Message- From: Matt Greer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, August 01, 2001 3:14 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [PHP] Installing PHP probs on 8/1/01 9:57 PM, Kyle Smith at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: well what if i want to set up the computer im using to be able to run php acripts, but NOT be an internet server?

Re: [PHP] Installing PHP probs
well what if i want to set up the computer im using to be able to run php acripts, but NOT be an internet server? You mean just run PHP scripts from the command line? Once you get to the point where you have C:\\php4\\php.exe, you're good to go.
