Apache Friends Support Forum

Hello,

I've installed WAMPP 1.7.3 and works fine, but a can't open .php5 files (show text).

I need help. Thanks in advance.

WAMPP or XAMPP? (It's not the same!)

I'm sorry,

I have installed "apache friends - xampp for windows" version 1.7.3

Thanks.

Apache can't know, that this filetype (.php5) had to be parsed by the php parser first.

The easiest way will be to rename your files from .php5 to .php

The other way is to define, that .php5 files should be parsed too:
- Open your file \xampp\apache\conf\extra\httpd-xampp.conf
- Search for "<FilesMatch "\.php$">" (~line 22) and change this line to

Code: Select all

<FilesMatch "\.(php|php5)$">

- Search for "AddType text/html .php .phps" (~line 46) and change this line to

Code: Select all

AddType text/html .php .phps .php5

If you want to use PHP as CGI Module in the future, you have to do the first change in ~line 36 too.

Hello Altrea.

I accepted the second suggestion and changed the \xampp\apache\conf\extra\httpd-xampp.conf and was working.

Thanks for help.

Regards.
