Where does PHP go?

Post by complete »

What I would like to know is where does all this go?
I have apache set up and working.
Now, to get the php, do I put it anywhere on my hard drive? Does apache need to be formatted?

You mean where do you install apache to?

What operating system are you on? Windows is a pice of cake, just follow the wizard through. *nix is a bit more tricky but the defaults should work in any case.

Once you have PHP installed there a couple more steps (changing your apache configuration via httpd.conf).

After that, you should be able to execute any PHP file that is kept in the htdocs directory of apache (the web server root).
