Hi Glenn 1. Check your php.ini if safe_mode is enabled (on) 2. If it is, who owns your script to be executed? It has to be the same users as the one running apache.
I'm a little bit fuzzy about '<?phpinfo.php?>'? Not sure what you want to do, but I would try '<?phpinfo()?>', this produces the PHP test/info page. regards rafi On Tue, 2005-05-31 at 17:04 +1000, Glenn Davy wrote: > Could someone tell me where I've gone wrong - I'm clearly missing > something.
