Re: xampp installation

hmm! well the only thing I would suggest is have a look at the php.ini
inxampp/apache/bin rather than the one inxampp/php/ you might see in
that php.ini that the settings which are correct in thexampp/php are
not repeated, thi s is what i think it is. The one in php folder is
for command line work.
When in xampp - "diff apache/bin/php.ini php/php.ini" shows that they
are identical.

After I start Apache and I get those error messages, I browse to :
http://localhost/ and get an empty page
http://localhost/index.html and get a page with the text "it works"
http://localhost:8080 and get an error message

does it mean that apache is running and I only have some php problem?


well i use the online manual for apache, and if you're using firefox
just type
"apache 2 docs mod_rewrite" and you will get the link to mod_rewrite,
its a great site actually, couple that with alt.apache.configuration
and you're there.
I would recommend not running to muchxamppstuff at first as its
rather insecure and bulky, and install as services means that
everything starts when your computer does, no hassle.

THere should indeed be two apache processes on windows, one is the
child process that does all the work.
php is set to show errors on startup, which is why you get a whole
load of pop ups, useful for debugging, but I can say thatxamppis
very very stable, its likely to be the wrong php.ini file,

In fact IMHO there should be two but the command line one should be
named php-cli.ini for clarity.- Hide quoted text -
