I feel like an idiot. Ive tearing my hair out trying to get preview setup on a new install.
I am using Rapid PHP 2008 on a new Windows 7 install. This machine used to be
a Windows XP machine using IIS. It all worked fine under XP.
On the new Windows 7 install I decided to is Apache 2.0 instead.
I've got the server installed ans it is running as expected. The paths are functioning as expected because pointing my url's to a localhost/phpmyadmin
directory runs the phpmyadmin correctly. So at least in know THAT works.
But the preview in Rapid PHP (both internal and external) I am having
nightmares with when trying to preview a PHP file. it seems to work fine
if previewing on non-PHP file. So, passing the correct address and PORT to
the preview is all hosed up.
Heres a few lines from my phpinfo...
SERVER_SOFTWARE Apache/2.0.63 (Win32) PHP/5.2.13
SERVER_NAME localhost
SERVER_ADDR 127.0.0.1
SERVER_PORT 89
REMOTE_ADDR 127.0.0.1
DOCUMENT_ROOT C:/eaahmpg/eatc7402/www
SERVER_ADMIN webmaster@localhost
SCRIPT_FILENAME C:/eaahmpg/eatc7402/www/php/phpinfo.php
Yes I've read all the docs about configuing preview. I've tried setting
directories and ports till i'm blue in the face.
Can anyone give me steer to get the preview working??

Re: Preview setup confusion
Please refer to following article to learn how to set up an external webserver:

What exactly have you entered as your document root folder and the corresponding web address inside the settings of Rapid PHP?
Please refer to following article to learn how to set up an internal webserver:

I recommend trying out the self-installing PHP package from our site that will set up everything for built-in preview:
