getting this error

FATAL ERROR: register_globals is disabled in php.ini, please enable it!

 

I'm a newbie.

 

I installed XAMPP/Apache and switched to php4.

 

Where is this php.ini file?

 

I don't see it anywhere.

There is a reg globals contribution, if you want to look there, which will sort it for you.

 

or.. theres making your own php.ini which can carry security issues.

i have now fixed at looking at the error it is to do with the file permissions set on each file when you set it up

 

i have chaged the file permission of the main index.php to 755 it now works fine with no problems at all

We just disabled register_globals, and I applied the contrib to work with globals off.

The catalog works. But the admin interface comes blank. How do I work around this?

thanks.
