Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Daniel, thank you. I looked it up and got so confused I turned to cursing and ice cream. The driver installed and it seems to be okay, though I've yet to actually try scanning anything.
omnis, it sounds like a great idea to me. The only reason not to do it is because it'll cost money to put it in place. You'd have to give them some convincing numbers to show that it would lower their costs over time (not a long time, either) enough to be worth it. If this sort of thing already exists somewhere and is profitable - saves more money than it costs - that'll help your case a lot.
The example file is where the extremely sketchy MAMP documentation insists it should go:
/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/listing6-1.php
The error reads:
Not Found
The requested URL /MAMP/htdocs/listing6-1.php was not found on this server.
Apache/2.0.59 (Unix) PHP/5.2.1 DAV/2 mod_ssl/2.0.59 OpenSSL/0.9.7l Server at 127.0.0.1 Port 8888
The URL is
http://127.0.0.1:8888/MAMP/htdocs/listing6-1.php
As I read the above, it looks like PHP is indeed started, from the error message, and filepath is resolving into something that should work.
Except it doesn't.

What do you see when you just go to [link] ? And when you go to [link] ?
And simultaneously in another window, I'm able to run phpMyAdmin SQL commands just fine, open up tables and do operations directly in SQL.
have you tried http: //127.0.0.1:8888/listing6-1.php ?
eta: x-post, of course
The first gets an error:
Index of /
Icon Name Last modified Size Description[ ] listing6-1.php 16-Jan-2002 04:29 3.1K

The second works, sort of, except that it doesn't seem to actually work work, but at least it gets a screen like it should!
htdocs isn't usually in a URL, but is rather the root of the directory that the web server points to.
That message isn't an error--it's a directory listing.
Excellent. htdocs is the folder name Apache uses for web documents -- you'll want to put all the files you make in there. Of course, they shoulda documented it better!
(Oh, and the first wasn't an error -- it's just that ugly file listing you get when there's no index page)
That's weird -- when I click on ita's link (which reads
http: //127.0.0.1:8888/listing6-1.php
), it will open the PHP correctly. But if I open a new tab or window, it won't find anything.
