php not running on apache 1

LinuxCrazy · 06-04-2007, 06:19 PM

I have centos 4.1, apache Version 1.3

This is the error I get when I do php version. Is there anyone that know what could be wrong?

[root@localhost htdocs]# php version
Status: 404
Content-type: text/html
X-Powered-By: PHP/4.3.9

No input file specified.

php is installed, reinstalling php gave me this
[root@localhost ~]# rpm -Uvh php-4.3.9-3.22.5.i386.rpm

You're missing a minus sign:

Code:

php -version

I get the following:

Code:

~$ php version
Could not open input file: version
~$ php -version

This is what I got

[root@localhost ~]# php --version

but why is php not running in my browser?

Do you have any php entries in your web server config? For example, I have the following for PHP 5 in my Apache 2.0.x httpd.conf file (the lines aren't together, I just grepped for php):

Code:

LoadModule php5_module        modules/libphp5.so
DirectoryIndex index.html index.html.var index.php
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

no, I don't have any of that. Is that needed?

Yes it is - otherwise Apache won't recognise the .php files. I don't know if your first post indicates a problem with the rpm install but there should be a docs directory installed as well. In there, have a look for the INSTALL file. The following is from the instructions for installing PHP 5 under Apache 2.0:

Code:

14. Edit your httpd.conf to load the PHP module.  The path on the right hand
    side of the LoadModule statement must point to the path of the PHP
    module on your system.  The make install from above may have already
    added this for you, but be sure to check.

    For PHP 4:

      LoadModule php4_module modules/libphp4.so

    For PHP 5:

      LoadModule php5_module modules/libphp5.so

15. Tell Apache to parse certain extensions as PHP.  For example,
    let's have Apache parse the .php extension as PHP.  You could
    have any extension(s) parse as PHP by simply adding more, with
    each separated by a space.  We'll add .phtml to demonstrate.

      AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml

    It's also common to setup the .phps extension to show highlighted PHP
    source, this can be done with:

      AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

I compiled mine from source and the make install put the module into the correct Apache directory for me. I'm assuming the rpm install you ran did the same.

I did add this below. but now everytime I go to a php page the page wants me download it

At this point don't forget to edit your conf/httpd.conf file and
make sure the file contains the line for PHP 3:

AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php3

Or this line for PHP 4:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

Was /usr/lib/httpd/modules/libphp4.so installed even though there were rpm errors? If not, you may be able to force an uninstall of the php rpm and then install it again.
