PHP installation problem Please??

[abduljan]

HI guys,

I am totally newbe with PHP. So i downloaded the lastest version of the PHP for windows (4.XXX). I installed it for PWS with windows 98. But i don't know if the installation is okay or not?

I created another Virtual Directory in my PWS as (PHP) and wrote the following code:

<?php print("hellow world"); ?> and i saved it as first.php

But it raises the error:

"You are not authorized to view this page
You might not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials you supplied. "

I don't know what is wrong? How can i check my php installation is alight? What else could be wrong?

any comment will be appreciated.

try http://localhost/php/first.php and see if it works
if so, check your pws config, you should add index.php as directory index and rename your script to iondex.php

hope that helps

if your using winNT, look at your security setting of your php script and your document root (found in httpaccess.conf) dir. your "www-account user" have to get full access to the files and the directory.
