Re: [LUG] apache web server adding pages as a normal user

[Paul Sutton <zen14920@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

Adding the ~ before the user name worked, should have seen that myself.


Its working now which is cool.   I will run the basic phpinfo script to 
check if php is installed properly, then have a play with some stuff, 
Perhaps a bit of php coding, then some mysql, then try and glue the two 
together.   Before which I guess I have course work to finish off for 
this astronomy course, got to be in by 29th July.

thanks again

Paul
