[SOLVED] PHP or Apache issues, displays as text only. On Centos 5

armsman · 09-13-2011, 04:15 AM

I'm very new to servers and have done alto of research on this but i am unable to find an answer I can understand.
I made index.php for an example with

Code:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

Here: http://XXX.XX.XXX.XXX/index.php

Thank you in advance for any help on this matter

Hi,

How did you install php? If you used your package manager (yum) it should have taken care for this by adding the file /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf.
Anyway you need:

Code:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

tried that, said this

Code:

-bash: AddType: command not found

yes I used yum

I used this tutorial: http://www.techiecorner.com/125/how-...nux-using-yum/

It's not a command. It's an apache directive
You need to add it, if not already exists (or it's commented out) in /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf.and restart apache

As I said i'm kinda new to Linux servers, i'll need instructions :/

What instructions do you need? If you have followed the tutorial you mentioned in your previous post, everything should be sorted.
The problem you meet is when the directive

Quote:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

does not exist in the apache configuration files.
So open /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf with your favorite editor and check if the above exists and it's not commented out (i.e. there is a # in front of it). If it doesn't exist, add it, or uncomment it and run

Code:

service httpd restart

to restart apache

Is there a reason I can't install ioncube?
Never Mind it's working

Glad to see it worked.
Edit your 1st post and mask your IP address if you don't want others to be able to see your phpinfo()
Also mark the thread Solved from the thread tools on top of the page

Cheers
