Shouldn't the Debian package php4_4.0.3pl1-0potato1.deb handle *.php3 files? Through netscape http://localhost/test-jameson.php, I can see php4 working, where test-jameson.php is <?php phpinfo() ?> This common test properly displays a few pages of PHP configuration information.
However, testing thru any of netscape/opera/mozilla on the file http://localhost/test4-jameson.php3, I only get a popup window, titled Save As... (type application/x-httpd-php3) to download the test4-jameson.php3 file. I get this same download-response whether test4-jameson.php3 contains the single line <!-- <?php phpinfo() ? --> or the single line (recommended test line in Horde Administrator's FAQ) <?php php_info() ?> Here are all lines in /etc/apache/* that contain "php", where all entries have been put there by Debian package installations, 1. httpd.conf: LoadModule php4_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/libphp4.so 2. srm.conf: DirectoryIndex index.html index.php index.php3 3. mime.types: application/x-httpd-php phtml pht php application/x-httpd-php3 php3 application/x-httpd-php3-source phps application/x-httpd-php3-preprocessed php3p I have installed the following php and apache modules, Package Version ------- ------- php4 4.0.3pl1-0potato1 php4-cgi 4.0.3pl1-0potato1 php4-gd 4.0.3pl1-0potato1 php4-imap 4.0.3pl1-0potato1 php4-ldap 4.0.3pl1-0potato1 php4-pgsql 4.0.3pl1-0potato1 phplib 7.3dev-3.1 apache 1.3.9-13.1 apache-common 1.3.9-13.1 libapache-mod-ssl 2.4.10-1.3.9-1 I presume that the php4 Debian package should handle php3 files. I deduce this because I am installing imp, whose description (dpkg -s imp) includes Depends: php3 | php4 (>= 4.0.3pl1) But the imp package is accessed thru the php3 web page, /usr/share/horde/imp/index.php3 So, while the imp package allows using the package php4 rather than the package php3, web access must be able to interpret *.php3 files---but does not.
