Apache and Dream Weaver Problem

Hi all,

I just finished my internal web site using Dream Weaver, using
JavaScript as the language, and each page has an .asp extension. I was
running IIS in Windows 2000 pro and it was working great!!!! However,
my IS manager wants me to use Apache, PHP, and MySQL. I setup
everything correctly, I think!!! I'm able to see my pages in my
browser, which I think is great. Anyway, my problem is that when I try
to click on say for example a certain link, the link will try to
download the page, not open it. Oh yeh, when I try to do a search on
one of my pages, I get that #$%#$##$ post 405 error. I really need
help on this and if anyone can lend a hand that would be great.

Are you sure that PHP is set up on the Apache server correctly?

Check using this method: Create a page with this code:

<?php

phpinfo();

?>

and save it as info.php. Put it in the htdocs directory of the Apache
Server. Then browse to it using localhost for the port using Apache and see
if the information page for PHP appears. If so, it is installed correctly.

..... Nancy thanks for getting back to me so soon. Yeh, I posted my new
phpinfo.txt file in the Apache dir and was able to view it in my
browser. New problem would be my posting method; I am not sure as to
how I have to reconfigure it in Apache apposed to in IIS!!!!

IIS and Apache, together, open yor httpd.conf ( Apache conf ) and change the port that
Apache uses to listen.
The default is 80 - change to 8080 ou 8081
--------------------
Port: The port to which the standalone server listens. Certain firewall
# products must be configured before Apache can listen to a specific port.
# Other running httpd servers will also interfere with this port. Disable
# all firewall, security, and other services if you encounter problems.
# To help diagnose problems use the Windows NT command NETSTAT -a
#
Port 8081
-----------------
You must use http://localhost:8081/ to call your PHP pages.
( For IIS no changes are necessary )
