[MS4W-Users] Antw: Re: MS4W-Installation

Hallo Jeff,

first I installed ms4w on Win7 64, but the test with dl() failed and I presumed that the problem is the OS. So I installed ms4w on xp. If you confirm, that installation on Win7 64 is running properly, I will prefere Win7.

Thank you
Alois

Hello Alois,

Maybe nothing is wrong with your installation.

Since you are using MS4W 3.0.6:

- copy the file /ms4w/tmp/phpinfo.php into /ms4w/Apache/htdocs/
- in your web browser goto: 127.0.0.1/phpinfo.php
- the PHP/MapScript extension should be loaded automatically (search on
that page for "mapscript")

I also worry about your old Windows version (XP); some parts of MS4W
might not work properly with that.
