Does anyone know how to setup apache to run .exe files? I've got apache setup on a windows machine, but cannot get on of my .exe files that I programmed to run on apache. I had them workingon a different web server, but can't get it to work on apache. It always wants to download the file instead of execute it. Any help would ne appreciated.

Thanks.

you need to tell apache how to handle the file. it doesnt have any instructions so it just sends a download command.

its like if you dont configure apache properly with php, it will prompt you to download the script.

How do you do that? I read somewhere that you might need a library or something.

The file is programmed in Borland C++.

it would be different for each app on how exactly but yes you would need a library or compiler of some kind.

like php has its libraries/compillers
