APACHE!

• Using the online resource we installed Apache
  without any problems
• After installing PHP and modifying the httpd.conf
  file we experienced problems with PHP and thus
  deleted and reinstalled Apache
• RESOURCE WE USED
• Wow Web Design

3
PHP!

• Downloaded zip file directly from the WOW Web
  site
• Extracted into directory C\program
  files\php\php-4.3.2-Win32

4
Problems with PHP

• Used the book as a reference used the WOW Web
  site as a reference
• When the .zip file was extracted, it created its
  own directory called php-4.3.2-Win32

5
Solution

• Deleted ALL PHP files, including php.ini,
  httpd.conf
• Removed and Re-installed Apache
• Re-extracted the php-4.3.2-Win32 .zip file
• Used ONLY the WOW Web site as a reference and
  everything worked out well the second time.

6
HTTPD.CONF

• The successful installation of PHP resulted after
  the following lines were added to the httpd.conf
  file
• ScriptAlias /php/ "c/php/ "
• Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php.exe"
• AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

7
ScriptAlias

• Controls which directories contain server
  scripts.
• Documents in the real name directory ("c/php/)
  are treated as applications and run by the server
  when requested

8
Action AddType Applications

• The action application associates the interpreter
  ("/php/php.exe") to run the PHP scripts
• AddType allows Apache to recognize PHP scripts
• Reference Materials
• thesitewizard.com

MySQL!

• We installed MySQL from the PHP and MySQL Web
  Development text book
• Installation went smoothly
• We opened the command prompt to test if the
  installation was successful
