I'm new to server side scripting so take it easy-BUT SOMEONE PLEASE REPLY!!!! I just downloaded PHPtriad, installed it and tried to run the first script-the hello world one thats in every first time tutorial. Anyway, I saved it under firstscript.php in the apache/mydocs directory like it stated, whipped up the browser, found the file and it didnt work-nothing came up. I had the apache server running(although I dont know the foirst thing about a server,I just clicked it on and it said it was running). Any ideas why it wouldnt work.
One more Q-you can run the apache server on your own computer, cant you.

if you installed it for very first time then you will have to click "install apache as service"......

If you know how to run the server and all that, then ignore this...

First, you go to your C:\apache\ folder, and double click on "apache.exe" You have to keep that DOS command prompt open when you want the server to be up. Then, go to the \htdocs folder inside the C:\apache\ folder, and save the .php file inside there. Next, open IE and go to http://localhost/firstfile.php and it should work.

Are you sure you got the address right? Like DSM says it needs to be something like this:-
Not
  • C:\My Documents\firstscript.php
