Ye' old general discussion board. Basically, for everything that isn't covered elsewhere. Come here to shoot the breeze, shoot your mouth off, or whatever suits your fancy. This forum is not for asking programming related questions.
I spent last night setting up my computer (for the first time) with the latest 1.3.29 apache, php 4.3.5, php 5.0.0RC1, mysql 4 and just about got everything working.
Now, when I go to a php page on my computer with any variables/strings in the url (eg: index.php?page=1), it gives me a 500 Internal Server Error. Is this an error with PHP or with Apache?
CHMOD type stuff on windows is controlled by the ACL. Your server should have a user or two on your machine... It may need some tweaking of its permissions.
oops, my bad. Apache doesn't run under a user. I must have been thinking of some other one I've used in the past. heh. It's settings would be controlled by http.conf. Sorry about the confusion.
I reinstalled PHP through the installer (instead of the non-installer zip) and it works great now (except for the millions of non-global variable errors, which can get quite annoying.
