I think my version of Apache is pretty recent. You don't have a file "commonhttpd.conf" in /etc/httpd/conf? Maybe do a find? This is about half-way through my commonhttpd.conf, and I just uncommented the last two lines: # AddType allows you to tweak mime.types without actually editing it, or to # make certain files to be certain types. # # For example, the PHP 3.x module (not part of the Apache distribution - see # http://www.php.net) will typically use: # #AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php3 #AddType application/x-httpd-php3-source .phps # # And for PHP 4.x, use: # AddType application/x-httpd-php .php AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps I guess the nice thing about installing it from Mandrake disc is that it's already configured. I didn't touch any PHP file. Is moving up to 8.1 (or soon, 8.2) an option? > Perhaps, that's the problem: I'm unclear where any files that I make should > go.

My web files go in /var/www/html. If your root is /htdocs, that's where I would put them. I'm not sure but what you may need to give permission to normal users to use PHP. Maybe try alt.os.linux.mandrake, a PHP or Apache group. Todd
