So I guess I just skip mail function for some time thanks anyway marek

Yes. My e-mail smtp server requires me to login. So what can I do to use mail function?

Ok. So I changed SMTP settings for the same as in MS Outlook. I left smtp_port = 25. Restarted server. Still doesn't work.

I'm sure it's an easy one. I can't use mail function. I get an error message:  Failed to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini. But I work locally only. All I did was changing "sendmail_from = " in php.ini file. Do I have to change smtp and smtp_port settings also? If so, what parameters should I give there? Thanks marek

It also works. Thanks a lot.

Great. It works. Thanks. So how to use the same fopen function if txt file is in folder which is "in higher level" (for example there's folder 'folder1' which includes 'file1.txt' and 'folder2'; and folder2 includes 'file1.php')? I still don't want to give specifc path to the txt file. marek

I want to open txt file which is in the same folder that php file. How can I use fopen function to open this txt file if I don't want to give specific path to this txt file? thanks marek

Notepad. You were right.

It's working! I made two things together that helped. Firstly I moved php.ini to C:/WINDOWS and changed line in httpd.conf file from PHPIniDir "C:/php" to PHPIniDir "C:/WINDOWS". Secondly I added .txt at the end of the line: AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml. I did this because I noticed that my file test.php on web localhost is shown as test.php.txt (actually, I don't know why). I restared server and I could see beautiful phpinfo side. Thanks to everyone that helped me on this forum (asspecially wildteen88). Now I can start to learn php (I think I'll have more problems since now).

I gave up with. I've tried so many times make this work... But still the same problem. So I've changed Apache 1.3 for Apache 2.0. In php manual it's said that I have to add: LoadModule php5_module "c:/php/php5apache2.dll" AddType application/x-httpd-php .php PHPIniDir "C:/php" Is this really all? Is the place of these lines in httpd.conf file important? Thanks marek

It's me again. I still have the same problem. Nothing has changed. When I run php -i in windows directory, it works properly. I can see page localhost on Apache. But still browser can't see the php code. So in my opinion the problem is only about settings in httpd.conf file. Am I right? Marek

I save them with .php extension. The name is test.php. And it includes only one line: <? php phpinfo() ?>. I really don't know what to do now. Thanks anyway. Marek

1. After I added: PHPIniDir "C:/php" to httpd.conf file, I got the message it's invalid command. So I deleted it. 2. I moved php.ini to c:/php 3. My windows path variable looks like this: %SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\ATI Technologies\ATI Control Panel;C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin;C:\PHP 3. I also used command line and in windows directory run php -i. It worked properly. 4. Web localhost works properly. But Apache and PHP still dont't want to work together. Marek

1. I already have c:\PHP in my windows path variable 2. I have php.ini on c:\windows 3. I have php5ts.dll on c:\php 4. I have aded two lines in php.ini: doc_root = c:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\htdocs extension_dir = c:/PHP/ext and I have changed display_startup_errors from Off to On. 5. I have restarted Apache 6. Error in Apache logs is: File does not exist: c:/program files/apache group/apache/htdocs/favicon.ico 7. Web localhost works properly. Still doesn't work. So if I have c:\php in windows path variable, I should delete php.ini from c:\windows and php5ts.dll form c:\php? Marek

Yes. I have added four lines to httpd file: LoadModule php5_module "C:/PHP/php5apache.dll" AddModule mod_php5.c AddType application/x-httpd-php .php AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps By the way, is the place of these lines in this httpd file important? Marek
