Apache Friends Support Forum

I am new to XAMPP and have installed on a Win XP Pro machine.
"Localhost" in URL works fine, but when I load a php file that only has the phpinfo() command my computer hangs....Literally forever until I stop it.

I am running my on version of MySQL.....

What could be wrong with the installation?

Thank,

Maybe, just may be...:

1. did you extract you XAMPP and run setup_xampp.bat(or something like this?)

2. is your code like this:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>

this 3 lines code should be saved under x:\xampp\htdocs\whatever_your_file_name.php

this whatever_your_file_name.php contains the above 3 lines code.

Hope it helps.
