The XAMPP shell is a custom command line (cmd). The difference to the default windows command line is that the path variable is extended by the xampp folders so that you can call the httpd.exe, mysql.exe, php.exe, etc from the xampp shell independend from the directory you are currently in.

Thanks for help, but what does this means: "Object not found 404 error" my php files is inside htdocs, when I type http://localhost/test.php I get "object not found" After saving my php file I drag it by pressing "ctrl" and it appear in htdocs but generate extension like this: test.php.lnk and it makes my php file unvailable. How to solve that problem please. I am using window 7 starter.

How to solve that problem please. I am using window 7 starter.

You should read some Windows tutorials about Drag&Drop, about Copy&paste, about moving files and about creating links. This is not a Xampp Problem, it is a problem of your Windows skills.

Hello all!
I think powershell more useful than cmd and looks good.
I suggest you evaluate version xampp-shell thought powershell.

Code: Select all

@ECHO off
SET xampp-ps= ^
$host.ui.RawUI.WindowTitle = 'XAMPP for Windows'; ^
$MIBDIRS = $pwd.path + '\php\extras\mibs'; ^
$MIBDIRS = $MIBDIRS.Replace('\','/'); ^
$MYSQL_HOME = $pwd.path + '\mysql\bin'; ^
$OPENSSL_CONF = $pwd.path + '\apache\bin\openssl.cnf'; ^
$OPENSSL_CONF = $OPENSSL_CONF.Replace('\','/'); ^
$PHP_PEAR_SYSCONF_DIR = $pwd.path + '\php'; ^
$PHP_PEAR_BIN_DIR = $pwd.path + '\php'; ^
$PHP_PEAR_TEST_DIR = $pwd.path + '\php\tests'; ^
$PHP_PEAR_WWW_DIR = $pwd.path + '\php\www'; ^
$PHP_PEAR_CFG_DIR = $pwd.path + '\php\cfg'; ^
$PHP_PEAR_DATA_DIR = $pwd.path + '\php\data'; ^
$PHP_PEAR_DOC_DIR = $pwd.path + '\php\docs'; ^
$PHP_PEAR_PHP_BIN = $pwd.path + '\php\php.exe'; ^
$PHP_PEAR_INSTALL_DIR = $pwd.path + '\php\pear'; ^
$PHPRC = $pwd.path + '\php'; ^
$TMP = $pwd.path + '\tmp'; ^
$PERL5LIB = ''; ^
$pwdPath = $pwd.path; ^
$env:Path += """";$pwdPath;$pwdPath\php;$pwdPath\perl\site\bin;$pwdPath\perl\bin;$pwdPath\apache\bin;$pwdPath\mysql\bin;$pwdPath\FileZillaFTP;$pwdPath\MercuryMail;$pwdPath\sendmail;$pwdPath\webalizer;$pwdPath\tomcat\bin""""; ^
function Prompt ^
{ ^
    $env:USERNAME + '@' + $env:COMPUTERNAME + ' ' + $(Get-Location) + """"`n"""" + '# '; ^
} ^
Write-Host -f green 'Setting environment for using XAMPP for Windows.';
START Powershell -noexit -command %xampp-ps%

To check system environment variables type:

Code: Select all

$env:Path.Split(";")

Variables changes just for current session.
After closing the window changes will not be saved.
