Can't get PHP to run

Ham1am · 06-19-2004, 12:58 PM

Hi folks.

here.. :/

I've installed RH 9.0.. struggled like mad to get my network card running.. and then I read the docs..

I've got apache running, but PHP doesn't seem to be working. I found a page on google where if PHP is working, it should pass the info to the browser, and it's not.

Code:

<html>
<head>
	<title>PHP Test</title>
	<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
</head>
<body>
	<h1>PHP Test</h1>
	<p>
	<b>An Example of PHP in Action</b><br />
		<?php echo "The Current Date and Time is: <br>";
			echo date("g:i A l, F j Y.");?>
	</p>

	<h2>PHP Information</h2>
	<p>
		<?php phpinfo(); ?>
	</p>
</body>
</html>

What my browser returns is this:

PHP Test
An Example of PHP in Action
PHP Information

I've searched high and low for a FAQ or doc, but having no luck. What'd I forget or miss?

Thanks for the help.

What does php -v from a terminal get you?

Hello Seventh, thanks for the reply

Version 4.2.2

Been a bit since I've messed with this, but in httpd.conf, you should have:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

and a LoadModule line.

Can you post your httpd.conf?

I'm by no means an expert, but I'll help as much as I can.

Also, I'm pretty sure the following needs to be in http.conf:

Code:

<Files *.php>
     SetOutputFilter PHP
     SetInputFilter PHP
</Files>

Hello again Seventh

I didn't have any of the lines.. I added AddType, and tried to do the AddModule.. but I'm not sure what needs to be in there.. so I did some searching and some guessing, however I didn't have much luck. I did manage to get httpd started again (with a warning message) but php still doesn't seem to work.

Code:

[root@localhost conf]# service httpd start
Starting httpd: [Sat Jun 19 18:05:22 2004] [warn] module php4_module is already
loaded, skipping

I'd attach my httpd.conf file, but it's 3 meg.. and I can't seem to find the attach button anyway..

Here's the things that might be of interest though:

Code:

LoadModule php4_module modules/libphp4.so (not sure this is correct)

<Files ~ "^\.ht">

    Deny from all

What else might be of interest?

Thanks a bunch Seventh!!
