Strong statement. You must be new to Debian. Debs work, some of them just require a bit of user intelligence. > I've ensured the LoadModule and other appropriate lines are in > httpd.conf, and php still isn't working.

I get the following error: > > Fatal error: Failed opening required './libraries/grab_globals.lib.php' > (include_path='.:/usr/share/pear') in /var/www/index.php on line 8 In checking the error msg above I find that grab_globals.lib.php is in /usr/share/phpmyadmin/libraries/grab_globals.lib.php. That means, to me, you are trying to run phpmyadmin, which wasn't obivious in your comments. I installed the phmyadmin deb and did not have your problem. Well who wrote that index.php file? Oh, I think I see what you did. It looks as if you copied /usr/share/phpmyadmin/index.php to /var/www. If so, thats whats wrong. see below. Do you have the line Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf in your /etc/apache/httpd.conf file? Check /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf for a line like Alias /phpmyadmin /usr/share/phpmyadmin If you have the above then (w3m|links|lynx) http://Your.server.name/phpmyadmin should load phymyadmin. > > And I can't find any solutions in my search of debian, php, or mysql mailing > list archives, or anywhere on Google (I've looked at a *LOT*).

Maybe if you get a bit more specific, we can help you find what 'you' have to do to get things running the way you want. May I suggest that you look to yourself before jumping to the conclusion that the debs are at fault. You won't make many friends here by blaming your problems on someone else. -- Southern DOS: Y'all reckon?
