Steps to configure Zend Framework in windows
i) Check if the path to PHP executable is set. You can check this by executing php -version from command prompt.
ii) Move zf.bat (or zf.sh) and zf.php which will be present in the Zend Framework’s bin folder to the php’s bin folder (where php.ini resides)
iii) Move \path\to\znedframework\library to the location identified by “include_path” variable
One way to identify the include_path variable
-> php -i
Other way is to open the php.ini file to identify the location. You can also append the path to zend framework’s library to the include path variable within php.ini file.
For Windows users, you can add an environment variable (system variable) that would point to the Zend Framework’s library folder and name the variable “ZEND_TOOL_INCLUDE_PATH”
If the configuration has been done correctly then you should be able to get a positive response when you execute
-> zf show version
-> zf –help
