Getting PHP 5 to work??

[blackasnight]

Hi,
I have installed php5under Apache and addedmysql also. My problem is I have acreated a file in var/www called testphp.php and try to run it from a command prompt. Keep being told it cant find it! It only has one line running info.php. Keeps saying there is a swp file of this name in var/www. How do I delete this and get my copy of php working properly? Any help would be most appreciated.

Hello,

It seems you posted this in the wrong section, but try running this

sudo apt-get install php5-cli php5 apache2 phpsysinfo

Once done, restart apache and run a test in the terminal with

php /var/www/info.php


You can also browse to http://localhost/phpsysinfo to test a full page
