PHP files not getting parsed

jayakrishnan · 02-03-2006, 03:52 AM

Installed php 4.2.2 and apache 1.3 , configured httpd.conf and mod_php.conf

uncommented the -> Include /etc/apache/mod_php.conf <- line in httpd.conf file

my mod_php.conf file looks like this

Quote:

#
# mod_php - PHP Hypertext Preprocessor module
#

# Load the PHP module:
LoadModule php4_module /usr/libexec/apache/libphp4.so

# Tell Apache to feed all *.php files through the PHP module:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php3
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php4

# This will display PHP files in colored syntax form. Use with caution.
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

Restarted apache, cleared the browser chace , but when i try to execute .php files , the browser tries to download the php file

Now what could be wrong

Quote:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php3
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php4

Put them all in one line and see what happens even though it should work as is:

Code:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php3 .php4 .phtml

I really dont understand this, AFAIK i have done everything correct , but still unable to get .php files to be parsed ,

Are you sure you're editing the correct httpd.conf? ~Just a thought...

If it tries to download the file then php is not loaded right.
It can be the DirectoryIndex line in httpd.conf.
it should look something like this
DirectoryIndex index.php index.html

The only differences I see, is that in my mod_php.conf file, the path to libphp4.so is relative: LoadModule php4_module libexec/apache/libphp4.so
And I also have: AddModule mod_php4.c
As mrdarby said, make sure you're editing the right file.
