PHP installation

The file isn't at the URL you are typing in to your browser.

if you haven't installed PHP correctly an error, or an obvious result would occur.

As you are recieveing a 404 error I presume you have not got the correct file path; or location of the file. Are you sure you are browsing to the correct file?(you may find it may help temporarily to turn directory browsing on and browse to the file through that).

Can you see HTML pages you have created on the server ior is it a new installation?

Good Luck
Joel

 

* Check if you have set Apache to support PHP.
* Check if you have set virtual host properly.
Error 404: wrong URL or file not found. Create a index.html in your root and point the URL to that file and check if this file can be loaded

hi!
well pws is working fine..i can view all my html and asp pages...
and i am giving the right path...
still its not working
need help!!!

Well, even if you are giving the right path in the browser, the file has to be placed in the right directory.

Are you getting the default page of Apache?????

First of all, check you default DocumentRoot in the httpd.conf file. Place the php file in that directory, and then in the URL your address should contain only the path from the DocumentRoot.
If you have done all this right, then i dont see why you should get this error.

thanx for the help...but now i get another error...
Warning CGI !
cgi_redirect_status....asked me to disable it..
i did now i get
500 internal web server error
plz guide me wat to do now!

1) could you tell me the name of the installer you used (with version and type (ISAPI or CGI). If you don't know this; just the name of the file is fine.  

2)Could you turn logging on "check the Save Website Activity Log" in the advanced tab of the PWS manager. If possible could you browse to a page and then post the results of the error here?

Then we can try some diagnosis.

Thanks
Joel.
