When I went to run a program, "php sayHello.php" was typed into the command line (Windows). The response was: 'php' is not recognised as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. While looking at the

Hello Riggs It appears to be working - the icon is green! Your advice was spot on - port 80 was used by another program which I then uninstalled. Thank you once again. havelly
