I just downloaded the new version of PHP. I installed it and I am using
Omnicron HTTPD server version 2.09. The PHP that came with the server works,
but when I installed the new version of PHP from PHP.NET, I got the
following error.
<!--- Error Message
Security Alert! PHP CGI cannot be accessed directly.
This PHP CGI binary was compiled with force-cgi-redirect enabled. This means
that a page will only be served up if the REDIRECT_STATUS CGI variable is
set. This variable is set, for example, by Apache's Action directive
redirect.

You may disable this restriction by recompiling the PHP binary with
the --disable-force-cgi-redirect switch. If you do this and you have your
PHP CGI binary accessible somewhere in your web tree, people will be able to
circumvent .htaccess security by loading files through the PHP parser. A
good way around this is to define doc_root in your php.ini file to something
other than your top-level DOCUMENT_ROOT. This way you can separate the part
of your web space which uses PHP from the normal part using .htaccess
security. If you do not have any .htaccess restrictions anywhere on your
site you can leave doc_root undefined. If you are running IIS, you may
safely set cgi.force_redirect=0 in php.ini

I read what it says and also the install.txt file that came from PHP.NET. I
have tried many different configurations with the "force-cgi-redirect "
variable both on and off. I never get it to work. I don't what it means to
assign a variable to the "REDIRECT_STATUS CGI " line in the php.ini file.
Some please help. I tried even going back and repointing the PHP files to
the php.exe that came with the server originally and it still does not work.
I am really stuck now, because nothing works.
