Thanks, that got the httpd server running with the php configuration in the .conf file. when I try htp://localhost I get the message "It works!", don't know if that is correct. But if I then put in htp://localhost/phpHello.php, it finds the file in htdocs no problem, but I just get the php file as text, so it seems httpd is not recognising the mime type setting. The system path environment variable does point to php. Since this may be php setup specific, I'll ask on a php mail group. thanks again, chris On 5/22/06, Oluwatope Akinniyi <topeakinniyi@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
