Installed v2.0 in XP Pro as local host. My goal is to set up localhost server for testing web pages.

When I start the console, I get a black window and blinking cursor.

Instructions say if it's installed correctly i'll get Apache screen.


newbie

Thanks for replying. I have it running and get the Apache screen. PHP is installed and running a test script.

Now that Mysql, Apache and PHP are installed I need to learn how to use them.

Perhaps you know this answer. Do all PHP pages I develop need to be in the Windows path??
