hey all,
I've been using apache, php and mysql on win32 for a while now, and I have
recently decided to move over to linux *yay*, so i got myself a copy of
Suse 7.1 personal edition.
i now have linux up and running, but for the life of me I cannot get php
and apache to work.
i downloaded the sources of both from their respective sites, and I have
managed to compile apache and get it running, and I have also managed to
compile php(i think) but i cannot get apache to parse any of my code.
i followed the instructions on installing php as a static object, here is
a brief outline of what i have done
i initially install apache, and get it running, i cannot remember what i
configured it with, but i dont think i configured it with anything
actually. one apache was installed i managed to get the httpd up and
running, *note* I have installed apache in /usr/local/apache, i assumed
that this was the norm.
i got apache running using the apachectl command, and managed to stop it
as well.
i now unpacked the php4.0.6 sources, these are the most recent available
from php.net, i unpacked this into a temp dir in my root folder (i dont
know if this is a good or a bad thing?)
i then followed the instructions in the php install file i configure php
with what i want, e.g. --with-mysql
--with-apache-prefix=/usr/loocal/apache (is this correct, or should it
point to where my apache source code is, in which case it should point to
/root/temp/apache1.3.6/src)
before i run the make and make install for php i then run the ./configure
on apache again this time enabling the php4 module, i run the ./configure
then i run the make, i now have a httpd binary in my apache1.3.6/src
dir(once again, i'm not really sure if it was here before) so i copy this
to the /usr/local/apache/bin dir, shutting down apache first of course.
once this is done i compile and install php
i now copy my php.ini-dist to my /usr/lib dir(i think) and edit my
httpd.conf file
i now restart apache and fire up a test php page i name my page test.php4,
when i load it in my browser(either konqueror or netscape6) all i get is
my source spat back out at me.
i'm guessing that it is just a problem with my httpd.conf, but i have made
the changes that are outlined in the install file. other than that i've no
idea as to what the problem could be.
any help would be much appreciated. sorry about the length of this mail.
