ShoeLace1291 Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Does anyone use Xampp? I just installed it on my computer today and I'm having trouble using it. Both apache and mysql are running but when I open a PHP file, it just outputs the php coding as regular text. I guess this should be in PHP Installation help. Sorry, didn't see it before.

trq Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Your not accessing the page via a local url, hence, not even using the server. You need to place your files in your web root directory then use a url like.... http://localhost/file.php Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/58466-xaamp-help/#findComment-289940 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShoeLace1291 Posted July 4, 2007 Author Share Posted July 4, 2007 I'm not using a server, it's just on my computer. How do I put it in localhost? Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/58466-xaamp-help/#findComment-289944 Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildteen88 Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 You move it/save it in XAMPP's web folder which is C:/xampp/htdocs Then you go to http://locahost/ as thorpe suggests Alo XAMPP is a server. It installs Apache HTTP server on to your computer. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/58466-xaamp-help/#findComment-290700 Share on other sites More sharing options...
