Hi,

This is not working for me. phpinfo page is blank.
Versions: Apache 2.2.9, PHP 5.2.6 , windows xp

Apache error log is clear, it is saying about php :
[Sat Oct 11 11:02:26 2008] [notice] Apache/2.2.9 (Win32) PHP/5.2.6 configured — resuming normal operations

Any idea?

PS:Sorry about my English.

I can browse http://localhost:8080/info.php which resides in c:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\info.php and contains:

BUT

When I try to run a simple script, from an html file, for example: http://localhost:8080/helloworld.html which contains:

First Name

The “firstname” Form displays. Then, I enter garbage in the input box, hit enter and I get the following error message:

Notice: Undefined variable: firstname in C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\helloworld.php on line 3
Hello World,

As you can see the garbage (literally anything I enter) does not display after “Hello World,”

So, why is my script not being included at execution time?

Here’s the helloworld.php:

Thanks in advance

Editing php.ini doesn’t help. I’m changing display_errors to ON, saving php.ini restaring PC and give’s me display_error OFF. Apache reading php.ini from say C:/PHP/ where im trying to modify. I’v also put the copy of php.ini into C:/windows directory. Nothing helps. PHP version 5.2.6 Apache 2.2.8. Thanks a lot.
