lightningrod Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 I have posted this question in another section as well, but maybe this is where it belongs. I have WinXP Pro SP2, IIS 5.1. I used the PHP 5.2 Windows installer. It went through all the motions, made the proper changes to IIS, and all that. I made the classic test file "test.php" and put it in the C:\Inetpub\wwwroot folder. When I type in my browser (IE7) http://localhost/test.php all I get is 404 error (page can not be found). If I type in my domain name or IP address (instead of "localhost") I get the correct php info page. Why would "localhost" not work? And how can I fix it? And does it matter? My next step is to use PHP to work with MySQL for web database, but I have to know if the PHP is working properly with IIS.

whitekolovrat Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 check your C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file, you may need to add a line 127.0.0.1 localhost in there, if you don't have it, or it is commented out with # Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/37764-iis-51-php-52-on-winxp-pro/#findComment-181074 Share on other sites More sharing options...
