Hi,
I have a new setup of 8.04 with Apache2, MSQL5 and PHP5.
However, I can't get the PHP to run. It is NOT the common problem of the browser offering to download the files. In my case I have some PHP in an HTML file, but the PHP is just ignored.

I have played around with my httpd.conf and also php5.conf files, but I couldn't make any difference.

My httpd.conf sets the document root to /var/www and if I put a php file in here with command phpinfo(), then it seems to dispay correctly. My HTML files are /var/www/app/index.html

Anybody have any ideas where I can look, to see what's going on?

Thanks for any help

Hi,

If you want to parse php code from a html page, then you have to add the .html extension in the AddType directive for php, so it looks like this:

Thank you so much Bathory. I was it was something like that but just couldn't get it.

Of course that chnage got me as far as discovering that my php mysql user was not defined in my data base, but that's another story. Everything is working well now.

Thanks again,
