Apache / PHP4 config problem (newbee on PHP)
Dear all, Hope I am at the right place/list. Got a (supposed) config problem with PHP4/Apache. OS: Debian potato 2.2r7, kernel 2.2.19 Apache 1.3.9 (Debian implementation) PHP4 4.0.3pl1-0p Attachedare both the httpd.conf and srm.conf files, along with the access.log, error.log, php script involved and the output of apache -V (apachev file). I think that this should not be a tough problem, but all FAQs and manuals I have read already are stating different things which seem not be compatible. That is why I turn to you, Debian gurus ;-) Any clue highly appreciated ! Caracal - G.

In all your effort to provide information, you forgot to tell us what you think should happen and what does happen, and in which circumstance...? I.e. what works different from what you expect? Where does it hurt?

Re: Apache / PHP4 config problem (newbee on PHP)
Thank you for your response. I moved the script to its original location (/var/www) but I get a strange behavior: - Using IE6, the browser asks me if I want to download the test.php script (???) - If I rename the .php script to .html, it displays just the header, nothing else, which is correct imho - If I try to access test.php via lynx, it just displays the html text. There is a tmp html file created, althought It seems to me that the php4 engine never starts to generate pages... Any other idea ?

Re: Apache / PHP4 config problem (newbee on PHP)
It seems to me that the php4 engine never starts to generate pages... Make sure the LoadModule line for php in apache's config file is uncommented. Then make sure you have MIME types set up for PHP files. AddType application/x-httpd-php .php AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps Should do the trick. -- Chris Hilts [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: Apache / PHP4 config problem (newbee on PHP)
You'll have to look at your httpd.conf (in /etc/apache/ ) You'll have to uncomment several sections for php to start working. The LoadModule section php4 The two file type lines for php4 and you might want to add index.php to the list of allowed index files After that, restart apache and you should be all set.

Re: Apache / PHP4 config problem (newbee on PHP)
Be sure to add these lines to your httpd.conf: AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php3 .phtml AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps (you technically only need the .php suffix, but I put all of them in there for backwards compatibility... you also don't really need the .phps one if you don't wish to see php code formatted in the browser.)

Hi, Glad you got it working. As an aside, I would recommend you upgrade your Apache and php because various vulnerabilities have come out. For example: http://www.debian.org/security/2002/dsa-168 http://www.debian.org/security/2002/dsa-187 Among others. You can also easily upgrade from Potato to Woody with minimal disruption.
