[darkprince]

please help i installed apache 2.0.46 and followed wullie's faq and after i istalled it i installed php 4.3.2 to c:\php then i put

# Begin PHP
ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php.exe"
# End PHP

in the httpd.conf file so then i put my phpinfo.php file into the htdocs folder in apache and when i try to open it just tries to download the file as if php wasn't installed.

Hi mate,

Ignore that FAQ, it's out of date and I've never had time to update it.

Download this package:

http://uk2.php.net/get/php-4.3.2-Win32.zip/from/a/mirror

There will be a file called install.txt or similar. Read through and follow the part about installing PHP as a module.

Hope this helps

Wullie
