Second thing you can try, if Apache if also somewhere on C:\
| Code: |
PHPIniDir "/php5"
LoadModule php5_module "/php5/php5apache2_2.dll"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

Sorry my spelling is bad is should have read that I tried to get the Alias function to work correctly thought I did was trying to associate my Project folder in this case C:\ABS with a virtuial folder in Apache
I might have mis understood what I was supposed to do and I changed Doucment_Root to C:\ABS
If I run localhost\phpinfo.php it runs just fine and gives me all my info
but if I try to run the project by calling localhost\ABS it brings up the parent directory and doesn't run the project
Any suggestions of what I might have done wrong 
any help would be greatly appreaciated
Thanks,
Michael |

Sorry here is the alias section from httpd
#
# Alias: Maps web paths into filesystem paths and is used to
# access content that does not live under the DocumentRoot.
# Example:
# Alias /webpath /full/filesystem/path
Alias /ABS/ "c:/ABS/"
Alias /ABS "c:/ABS"
thanks

An update if you will...
This problem had me stummped for about 1/2 a day. I Googled just about everything I could think of to see if there was an easy/quick solution and after trying a few things this is what I now have.
OS: Vista Ultimate x64 (build 6000)
Server: Apache/2.2.8 x64 (shows up as "Apache/2.2.8 (Win32)" though)
Scripting: PHP 5.2.5 x64
Database: MySQL 5.0.51a x64
I configured and installed everything manually, pretty much, just because I like to see what's happening.
Anyway, the actual solution to installing Apache etc. was a lot simpler than I had imagined and all the clues were there for the taking on the Googleverse
I'll skip all the configuration bits and pieces and assume you have all the software, you need to run, setup in their respective directories. Now, here's the easy part...
1. Go to your Start Menu (Vista)
2. in the 'Start Search' box at the bottom of the menu, type 'cmd'
3. This should now show the cmd.exe file in the menu at the top
4. Right click and select 'Run as administrator'
5. In you DOS window, change directory to your Apache installs 'bin' directory (i.e. cd c:\apache\bin or whatever)
6. Type 'httpd.exe -k install' and you should be gold!
The service installs and starts up after a reboot without the need to turn off UAC or anything like that.
Oh yeah, with MySQL I just downloaded the 'MySQL GUI Tools 5.0' suite, ran the System Tray Monitor .exe as administrator (right click, etc.), installed a mysql instance, configured it and started the mysql server.
Basically, I think, the secret is to run this kind of stuff using 'Run as administrator'
Good luck |
