feckless Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 I have run a local, development WAMP server on Windows XP for years with no problems. I have a few development sites on my desktop which all work fine in that environment. I just got a Vista/Business machine and manually installed Apache 2.24, PHP 5.2.4 and MySQL 5.0.45 along with PhpMyAdmin 2.11.0 Everything works fine except it seems that PHP is blind to any includes. I have gone over all the PHP.ini and Apache setups and can't see what's wrong. I installed everything AFTER turning off Windows UAC (user account control) and the Windows firewall, so I don't think they are messing around with me. Anything that should stream in from the "includes" just does not stream in, so the script will fail. This is usally how I bring in the database credentials, so I'm stuck! I have wasted DAYS on this. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated. Thanks. :-\ Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/69099-wamp-install-on-vista-business/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
feckless Posted September 13, 2007 Author Share Posted September 13, 2007 I gave UP. Something is wrong with how PHP 5.2.4 and Apache 2.2.4 work together sometimes. Some things work; others do not. Solution: Go to Sourceforge.net and downloaded WINLAMP. This installs Apache 2.0, MySQL 5.0.22 with PHP 5.1.4 along with a few other things like PhpMyAdmin. You can pick and choose what you want to install. Result: Everything works.
