Common Problems
## Common Problems

---------------
-
PHP doesn't work - getting empty page, or 'File not found' error. The
reason for that is wrong paths to the interpreter. Remember that with PHP,
correct interpreter is
`php-cgi.exe`
(
`php-cgi`
on UNIX). Solution: specify
full path to the PHP interpreter, e.g.
`mongoose -cgi_interpreter /full/path/to/php-cgi`
## Embedding
Embedding Mongoose is easy. Somewhere in the application code,
`mg_start()`
function must be called. That starts the web server in a separate thread.
When it is not needed anymore,
`mg_stop()`
must be called. Application code
can pass configuration options to
`mg_start()`
, and also specify callback
functions that Mongoose should call at certain events.
[
hello.c
](
http://a.c
)
provides a minimalistic example.
