title: How to setup PHP Server for Flex app
body: <p>I am creating a Flex project on my Windows machine but it will deploy on my Linux machine.</p>
  
  <p>For application server type I selected <code>PHP</code></p>
  
  <p>I click next to go to the next screen. </p>
  
  <p>I am then asked for Web root. I put in <code>/var/www</code> which is the web root of the linux server where the application will be.</p>
  
  <p>I get an error telling me:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>The selected web root folder does not exist.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Of course it does not exist on my windows machine, its on my linux machine. It will not let me click finish.</p>
  
  <p>What do I do? do I have to author my Flex app on the same machine that it will be deployed? I hope not since I do not have a Linux version of Flash Builder.</p>

  By the way I am following this <a href="http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/testdrive/articles/1_build_a_flex_app.html" rel="nofollow">tutorial</a> if it matters.</p>
