[Resolved] Apache Question

I'm so confused. I'm at this page: http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/ what do I need to download? I know there's been many threads lately about setting up Apache, PHP, and MySQL. So I thought I'd give it a try.

*assumes you're using Windows*

http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/binaries/win32/

So....do I download all of them? :confused:

no you need only one

apache_2.0.36-win32-x86-no_ssl.msi

or if you want SSL and no source you get this one

apache_1.3.24-win32-x86-no_src.msi

but that is an older version so it is up to you.

I advise you get this one

http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/bin...x86-no_ssl.msi

you could download PhpTriad it installs apache, mysql, and php for u :)

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/p...1.exe?download

It's installed. Now what do I have to do? Is there any configuration that has to be done?

*stuck*

woo! I got Apache going. Now I'm gonna work on PHP.

do the PHP files have to be in the htdocs folder for them to execute?

I got this error when trying to run a simple PHP script:

Error message:
Premature end of script headers: php.exe

??

try running phpinfo() in a script

<?php
phpinfo()
?>

try that and see if it will run. if not you don't have apache configured to run php

Nope, same error. Should the line in the httpd.config file be "Action application/x-httpd-php /php/php.exe" or "# Format: Action application/x-httpd-php /php/php.exe" ??

I'm following the tutorial you have linked on your site btw, lameindustries.org or something like it.

http://64.21.160.2/~filburt1/forums/...&threadid=2625 (http://www.liquid2k.com/filburt1/part1.html if the link doesn't work)

filburt, that even takes me farther down a dead end road.

I have this in mine

Action application/x-httpd-php4 "/php/php.exe"
Action application/x-httpd-php4 "/php4/php.exe"
Action application/x-httpd-php4 "/php3/php.exe"


I think it just tells apache what to look for in extensions.

I'm still dead. I restarted the .conf file from the default and went through that tutorial and the one on scouts site and both end up dry. :confused:
