I know this question has been asked numerous times but even after spending an afternoon following several different sets of directions and debugging advice I'm still stuck.
I installed Apache 2.2.8 and PHP 5.2.6 on my dell Latitude lap top.
I created a simple php test file called info.php and placed it in the Apache htdocs directory.
<?
phpinfo();
?>
I request the page with http://localhost/info.php
Apache returns a blank screen. If I view the source with the browser I see the php code. Apache does not know what to do with a php file and is delivering the file as the response rather than processing it.
What I've tried:
First of all, the PHP install added the following to httpd.conf
PHPIniDir "C:/Program Files/PHP/"
LoadModule php5_module "C:/Program Files/PHP/php5apache2_2.dll"
I added:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php5
What is missing?
Thanks for any help or guidance,
beeky

Re: Apache is not processing the PHP file
Did you restart the apache service after you edited its config files?

Re: Apache is not processing the PHP file
I figured out what was wrong by looking through the archives of this forum. The problem was my usage of the 'old' php style <?...?> insead of <?php...?> in my php test program.
