Hello. First - This may well be a problem principally to do with apache, but if so (it appears to be) specifically with apache/php interaction so here goes....
I have been experimenting with apache 1.3.23 / php 4.1.2 for several weeks now and have met with a problem that has me puzzled. I have built Apache & php from source on linux and have elected to statically bind php to apache (i.e. httpd -l reports mod_php4.c) Om my local apache server, I can execute cgi-bin programs in C and perl perfectly well to service POST requests from html pages. I have access to a remote server, which also runs these cgi-bins correctly. I also built the command line version of php - which executes simple php code from the console. php -i > info.html produces an html page that (as far as I can see) is OK. As far as I can tell, I have the necessary additions to httpd.conf to recognise php mime types. HOWEVER. On both my local and on the remote server, attempts to execute html with embedded <?php (or any other alternative to this) act as if the server was treating the html inclusions as comments. Nothing is produced in the displayed page from the php sections, but a `view source' returns the page with the php code inclusions present . This happens on both my local server and the remote one (which I understand) is also running apache 1.3.23 On the local server, there are no error reports from either apache or php in their respective logs. I guess that apache is probably not even attempting to parse the html page, and the browser will simply be silently ignoring unknown html tags. If I am right about this, what then is likely to be missing from (again a guess) my httpd.conf Sound familiar to anyone eh?
