Can someone help? Using Linux (Mandrake 8.0), I'm still having great difficulties getting Apache and PHP installed/configured to interface the MySQL database I'm using. I've repeatedly tried compiling PHP and Apache from source, with no luck (I even used newer/older versions the several times I tried). I've tried installing the most recent RPM's (after uninstalling source code directories, and any previously installed RPM's), and it doesn't work either. After installing Apache from compiled source code, I was able to view the webpage on http://localhost, but I got stumped trying to get PHP running. Using the RPM's, I went to http://localhost, and it just gave me an empty directory with no webpage. I stopped and restarted the Apache server between each attempt, as follows: /usr/sbin/apachectl stop /usr/sbin/apachectl start
Here are the webpages geared toward beginners, that I used: http://www.devshed.com/Server_Side/PHP/PHP101 http://www.e-gineer.com/instructions/install-php4x-for-apache1xx-on-linux.phtml Tonight, I got a segfault while doing a "make" on PHP. i uninstalled Apache, and installed the Apache version recommended by the website. The recommended Apache version compiled and installed easily. the recommended version of php got a segfault as follows: zend_alloc.c: In function `_ecalloc': zend_alloc.c:242: Internal error: Segmentation fault. Please submit a full bug report. See <URL:https://qa.mandrakesoft.com/> for instructions. make[1]: *** [zend_alloc.lo] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/etc/php-4.0.3pl1/Zend' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 Hopefully someone can point me to what I should be doing. I didn't keep a log of all my activity, so I don't remember which module I compiled in, or whatever - I'm still learning so I really don't know anyway. All I want to do at the moment is get a good Forms interface using Apache/PHP) for inputting data into MySQL database - the MySQL frontends aren't what I wanted.. Thanks. Chip.
