Re: [PHP] Re: page works on public web site, but not on my computer
I understand, but that's not an option. I am not interested in getting into a Linux vs. Windows fight here, let's just say that I am stuck with Windows. Now, somthing's gotta be seriously wrong here. I have tried now 4 or 5 different scripts for the photo gallery that I am trying to implement and NONE of them has worked. I have enabled all extensions and loaded all modules in Apache and php -- still nothing. I can't believe that the Apache Society out there simply ignores the 80% or so that use Windows. Can anybody point me to a group that deals with Apache (PHP) on Windows? Thanks. mike Ashley Sheridan a...@ashleysheridan.co.uk wrote in message news:1251290333.27899.27.ca...@localhost...

RE: [PHP] Re: page works on public web site, but not on my computer
Mike, It's not MS-Windows, it's just Vista. Vista was designed and distributed for use as a home entertainment center. It was loaded with DRM and other restrictions to entice the RIAA and MPAA to use it as their primary platform for distributing music and movies, respectively. That pretty much broke it for any serious uses. If you can't avoid MS-Windows, at least upgrade to XP.

Thanks. mike Hi Mike, First off, it's hard to say whether your problem actually is OS-related or whether it's due to a system misconfiguration or what. That said, while the majority of desktop users may still use Windows, I don't think you'll find that Windows or Vista make up a very large percentage of Apache's target market at all. Anyway, have you tried running just a script containing only ?php phpinfo(); ? ? This should at least give you an indication of whether the installation is working at all. I haven't gone back over both threads on this so if you've already tried this and it worked, please ignore this. :) Cheers, Torben Ashley Sheridan a...@ashleysheridan.co.uk wrote in message news:1251290333.27899.27.ca...@localhost...

I deploy on Linux, and personally I find the two environments to be very compatible (in fact besides the url and filename case differences I haven't found any practical difference between the two at all). So it's not at all true that Apache simply ignores the 80% or so that use Windows. You previously said you're new to php, so what are the chances that this has more to do with your own inexperience with php rather than some Windows-only bug you've discovered and are revealing to the rest of the php community? The error message mentions the script name and a line number, have you checked what code is causing the error? You said you installed php 5.3 on your pc. Chances are very high that the host you uploaded this to is not running php 5.3. Someone previously mentioned that there are differences between 5.3 and the previous versions that could account for your issues. Have you tried installing php 5.2 and trying it again? There are also settings in php ini file that you can change to change the error reporting, but it's not clear if you've tried that yet. One final thing, have you tried to google with the error message to see how others dealt with this problem?

I don't use Windows myself anymore for anything except World of Warcraft, but my little time spent using Vista has left me wanting to do violence! You can't go too wrong with using a Linux OS as your development server, as that is what is in use on the majority of the worlds web servers anyway. I've also not yet seen any PHP apps which will only work on Windows, and I believe that most of the modules that are in mainstream use at the moment are available on Linux (and more than likely were available to that platform before Windows) and in a lot of cases perform better. Also, having a good bit of Linux experience under your belt can work wonders on your CV! RedHat is good for this sort of thing, or Fedora if you intend to use it as your desktop machine also (as they are pretty much the same, but Fedora is where new features, etc are seen first out of the two. Suse isn't bad, and has some good Windows network integration (for things like Active Directory) if you are using it as a work desktop machine as well as a development server.

Now I get in addition to the error message below this: [Tue Aug 25 21:29:11 2009] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] PHP Deprecated: Function eregi() is deprecated in C:\\webdev\\rmv3\\album\\getalbumpics.php on line 11, referer: http://localhost/album.php Hi Mike, No, those messages don't indicate anything which would cause PHP to fail or abort. Do you see anything different if you change error_reporting to error_reporting = E_ALL, display_errors = On, and display_startup_errors = On in php.ini? (Note: if you do turn on display_errors and display_startup_errors, be sure to turn them off again before making your page available to the public). Are you using the PHP Apache module or fastcgi or some other method? Torben Don't know if those warnings would stop the execution of the php script. mike bode mikebo...@hotmail.com wrote in message news:99.f2.08117.ccf74...@pb1.pair.com...
