Re: Virtual hosts and PHP "downloads": php5 and apache22 on FreeBSD6.1-STABLE
Just an update on this: as you might expect, after deinstalling apache22, reinstalling apache13, de/reinstalling PHP5, and adding the "old" manual updates to httpd.conf, my server is back up and running. A fitting conclusion to 1.5 days of self-induced stress. Thanks to Mikhail, Kevin, "fbsd," and Rob for their help and thoughts. ~John ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I may have missed a week or two, but the only responses I've seen
personally have been "see /usr/ports/UPDATING", which I did. I'm
not
thrilled with the stock "RTFM" post, but I guess that's par for the

I did that. That's pointed out in /usr/ports/UPDATING.
Unfortunately, it didn't automatically fix the issue for me.
** thats because you are using the devel version of apache.
php4 & php5 are designed to auto update apache13 not apache22
you are on your own when you use devel apache22
Blow away apache22 and you can use the apache13 package for quick
install
then php5 port like said before. if you have previous working
apache13 httpd-config restore it to correct path after apache13
package install, then php5 port "make" will update it correctlly.

I was running 1.3 before my BSD upgrade to 6.1-STABLE. There were
security issues with 1.3 that were not resolved at the time of my
upgrade. And I assumed with the package changes to PHP5 in 6.1 that
going with an updated version of apache as well would be the best
method. If you're saying I should revert back to 1.3, should I also
revert to an earlier version of PHP5, or is the latest and greatest
still best compatible with apache13?
*** I know of no security issues in apache13 in 6.1 release. your
6.1 install will give you the correct port version of php5. The
package php5 is broken because it does not contain the apache module
by default as in previous freebsd releases. you do have to cvs the
php5 config files plus the base make control files. go with it.
*
* warning side note: be sure to comment out proxy module
statements in both places in httpd-conf. this will stop your web
server from being used to attack other systems without your
knowledge.

do "make config" and select the apache module. The "make install"

I did that. That's pointed out in /usr/ports/UPDATING.

Your other httpd-config problems are due to you using apache22

I was running 1.3 before my BSD upgrade to 6.1-STABLE. There were

Subject: Virtual hosts and PHP "downloads": php5 and apache22 on
FreeBSD6.1-STABLE
I upgraded my system from 5.4-RELEASE to 6.1-STABLE last week, and
my
web server immediately stopped serving PHP pages, where I had no
problem doing so before. Instead of processing the PHP code on the
server and displaying the result in a browser, browsing to any page
containing PHP code resulted in a prompt to download the PHP page as
a
file.
/usr/ports/UPGRADING mentions that PHP has been streamlined and must
be recompiled to work with Apache and other packages. After
deinstalling, configuring (where applicable), and reinstalling PHP5,
php5-extensions, and apache2 to the latest versions, not only were
PHP
files not being served, but my web server was toast:
"Forbidden You don't have permission to access / on this server."
I edited the new apache config file (now located in
/usr/local/etc/apache22/httpd.conf) with my system information,
including a DocumentRoot path. But when I started apache, I got some
very peculiar errors:
"Warning: DocumentRoot [/www/docs/dummy-host.example.com] does not
exist
Warning: DocumentRoot [/www/docs/dummy-host2.example.com] does not
exist"
Not only did I confirm beforehand that I had set the DocumentRoot
path, and that apache was using the correct config file... but these
"dummy" paths didn't exist in the config file! I learned eventually
that a new apache directive splits out virtual host directives to a
new include file (/usr/local/etc/apache22/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf).
Then I learned after getting a server warning ("NameVirtualHost *:80
has no VirtualHosts") that the syntax has been slightly modified, so
that the IP/port value of each VirtualHost specification must match
that of the NameVirtualHost directive (i.e., "NameVirtualHost *:80"
and "").
Still having trouble though: my "main" site loads properly, but the
other virtual hosts aren't. Browsing to any virtual host address
other
than the default results in either the wrong content or an error.
Here's what my httpd-vhosts.conf looks like:
NameVirtualHost *:80
ServerName www.SiteA.com
ServerAlias SiteA.com *.SiteA.com
DocumentRoot /usr/www
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd-SiteA-error.log
CustomLog /var/log/httpd-SiteA-access.log combined
ServerName www.SiteB.com
ServerAlias SiteB.com *.SiteB.com
DocumentRoot /usr/www2
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd-SiteB-error.log
CustomLog /var/log/httpd-SiteB-access.log combined
So, what's happening is that SiteA works as expected, but browsing
to
SiteB brings you to SiteA, or doesn't load at all ("403" error).
In addition, I'm back to my original problem, where PHP files are
not
loading, and browsing to a PHP page prompts the user to download the
page as a file.
Any help on either the virtual hosts or the PHP download issue would
be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

RE: Virtual hosts and PHP "downloads": php5 and apache22 on FreeBSD6.1-STABLE
The php5 port is broken in 6.1.
It no longer defaults to activating the php/apache module.
This has been covered in great detail on this list in the past 6
weeks which you would have found out if you reviewed the list
archives before posting this question.
After downloading the 6.1 version php5 port config files you have to
do "make config" and select the apache module. The "make install"
will automatically make the correct changes to your httpd-config
file for serving up php pages correctly. php5-extensions is not
normally needed.
Your other httpd-config problems are due to you using apache22
instead of apache13 which is the rock hard production version of
Apache web server. Apache22 is generally considered as the
developmental version.
