Nothing is working!?!?!?!
WinAMPP 3.2.2 running on port8080 due to conflict
PHP 5.6.30.0
Not using
- file://
as that doesn't activate the PHP engine - trying to access it through
- http://localhost/
finally...
Found a test_PHP.bat in the XAMP directory and ran that.
It correctly exclaimed (at the top of the report) Microsoft C++ 2008 runtime libraries not found !!!
Please install the MS VC++ 2008 Redistributable Package from the Microsoft page
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5582
Installed it. Working fine now.
