Testing Server



October 21, 2010 11:08PM
I seem to have EASYPHP installed; Apache seems to be running.

My localhost folder is in fact c:\web.

Dreamweaver demands a TESTING SERVER to see PHP files it creates, but I don't know WHERE to tell Dreamweaver to look for this.

When I try to view the php file I created it opens up the browser (Firefox) but says "file not found". I have at least five separate descriptions from the internet of how to do this but none of them work for me. Yes, I am no doubt stupid .... but stupid people need the most help!

Configuring Dreamweaver -> you have to define the local folder where your files are, the remote folder where they will be displayed on the internet and a testing folder server. It isn't clear to me if these are all the same or not. I have tried various combinations but not managed to see a php file in a browser.

Of courze I am developing a site and everything must for now be on my LOCAL machine, but WHERE?

I don't kwow DW. Probably the easiest solution is to define your "localhost folder" to "your EasyPHP installation folder"\www.
