[PHP-WIN] Installation of Apache & PHP4 on Windows From: Rachel Baillie (rachel <email protected>)
Date: 05/14/01

I recently brought the book PHP fast & east web development. I am having problems trying to run PHP and an Apache Server on Windows. I have Windows ME.

It was suggested to me that I had a spelling mistake. I am not sure where that would be as I have followed the instructions in the book very carefully. It was suggested that I should correct the spelling mistake while in Apache but I received the following message.

    APACHE.EXE: cannot determine local host name.
    Use the ServerName directive to set it manually.

I am not sure how to read and then fix the error. Are there any names other than "localhost" that might recognise the local software for Windows ME.

Thank you for your suggestions.
