twomt Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Hi, not a 100% sure if I am getting your question, but here's an answer attempt anyway: PHP itself should be installed outside of your document root. The php scripts you have created and want to execute over the web, they need to be inside the document root. The CGI-BIN folder has no meaning, if you don't use it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rajivgonsalves Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 there will be a folder name "public_html" or "www" or "htdocs" you will have to put your files there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rajivgonsalves Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 no some files are required... default server setup so just add your files there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
