I am attempting to host this on my local machine. I am using Apache 2.0 and php 5.0.4. My machine is a Windows 2000 system. I am using MySQL 4.1.

I can connect to my machine through Netscape. My machine reports that Apache is installed correctly when I do this. I can also log onto the MySQL database from a command window and execute various commands. And, I can test php using infophp() that I learned about on this website.

I don’t have, or know what, cpanel / plesk / vdeck are.

When I try to install wordpress by opening the install.php file from the Netscape browser, I get the exact same message that appears at the top of this thread.

I am located behind multiple firewalls, and a secure government site, so I can’t provide a link to my site.

I have used my system as a web host for other pieces of software with success.

I am having the same problem as danielle. I tested the php using the infophp() command and it works fine.

arepo, what do you mean when you say I pointed my browser at the old site?
