Difficulty setting up PHP :(

Try as I might, I cannot get it to work.

It's a WinNT installation.

I have a source area d:/phpsource/

A php installation: c:/php

and I want to access the source area like: (URL)/php/login.php

This is my bit of httpd.conf

ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php.exe"
Alias /php/ "d:/phpsource/"

I keep getting this error message in my error logs:

File does not exist: d:/phpsource/php.exe/php/login.php

What on earth have I done to deserve this pain!

Hi!

I think the problem is, that you have two aliasas for /php/
One the ScriptAlias and one "normal" Alias.
Try this:

Alias /src/ "d:/phpsource/" or any other name you like


The way I understand it is that Apache reads your request for

/php/login.php

from the .php extension Apache loads /php/php.exe since you have aliasd /php/ it is substituted with d:/phpsource/ and out comes your error message.
