Answer 1

when we are creating webapp in yii framework : Or error ( "php.exe" is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file )

php.exe file path : C:\xampp\php\php.exe

yiic.bat File path : C:\xampp\htdocs\YiiMain(foldername)\framework\yiic.bat

"%PHP_COMMAND%" == "" set PHP_COMMAND=C:\xampp\php\php.exe

Answer 2

Simply use the path of the php.exe before the yiic to execute the php script in windows environment.

your command will look something like this:

c:/xampp/php/php.exe path/yiic webapp application_name

Answer 3

You need to add complete path in your php.exe in `yii\framework\yiic.bat

for example in my case it is if

"%PHP_COMMAND%" == "" set PHP_COMMAND=C:\wamp\bin\php\php5.3.8\php.exe

Answer 4

just change the address in init.bat file as before

if "%PHP_COMMAND%" == "" set PHP_COMMAND=php.exe

after

if "%PHP_COMMAND%" == "" set PHP_COMMAND=C:\wamp\bin\php\php5.5.12\php.exe

and save it.
