Subject: php downloads instead of running
Posted By: ss2003 Post Date: 2/15/2004 3:28:18 PM
The php was working okay for a few weeks on my windows xp home laptop but now its not.

The local info script works fine

<?
phpinfo();
?>

but if I make my own script and save it as a .php it tries to download instead of execute.

I uninstalled and re-installed php and the web server, and in fact changed from abyss web server to apache, still my scripts no longer run. They used to work okay a week ago.

What can I do?

if you edit the file you put the <?phpinfo();?> in to an echo "test"; statement or anything else, does it work?  If it does then you are having file permission problems...

why are you using apache with windoze?  you might as well use iis

What's the filename of your local info script?

Is it .php, or something else (e.g. '.php4'?)


Take care,
