Hello, I recently installed php5 from source, on Red Hat.
I compiled to customs directories and config files so the old php4 could work too.

When I enable php5 (and disable php4), if I try to access a php file it prompts me to download the file.

When php5 is enabled and apache restarted, no error message are shown at bash.

The conf file looks like this:

LoadModule php5_module /usr/lib/httpd/modules/libphp5.so
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
DirectoryIndex index.php


I've tried using also :

AddHandler php5-script php
AddType text/html .php

but is doesn't works anyway....

Any help?

check if the mod for php5 is enabled

I though that i just needed the LoadModule ...
where do I enable the mod??
[sorry I don't know too much about apache]

macklein

which apache log file can I check for error messages related to this problem?

You can try
a2enmode php5
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Log file is located in /var/log/apache2/error.log

EDIT:
Sorry this commands are for Debian, they dont work on Red Hat as far as i know.

What's your Apache version? In 1.3 you sometimes have to add one extra AddModule line to enable module.

Apache/2.0.52

I've checked the error file /var/log/httpd/error_log, I only found errors related to files not found (images, etc), but nothing about php....
