Hi,
After many hours of searching FAQ's in vain, can some kind soul help me
get PHP to work ?
I installed RedHat 7.2 + KDE about a week ago (my first Linux
intallation) without any significant problems and everything seemed to
be working
fiine until I tried PHP (with famous test "Hello World"). PHP refuses to
send me that greeting. It looks like the PHP module needs to be
activated.
I found the following lines in the httpd.conf that was installed in my
system:
<IfDefine> HAVE_PHP4>
LoadModule php4-module
</IfDefine>
.....
<IfDefine> HAVE_PHP4>
AddModule php4-module.c
</IfDefine>
And the following lines in the Apache startup script :
if [ -f /etc/sysconfig/apache ] ; then
. /etc/sysconfig/apache
fi
....
start() {
echo -n $"Starting $prog: "
daemon $httpd `moduleargs` $OPTIONS
RETVAL=$?
echo
[ $RETVAL = 0 ] && touch /var/lock/subsys/httpd
return $RETVAL
}
Note: I also have a file /etc/php.ini
The "Apache Aministrator's Handbook" I'm using says that to activate
modules, Apache should be started" with /usr/sbin/httpd -D<name>."
Is it correct to assume that some "options" should be passed to the
function start() from the file ./etc/sysconfig/apache ?
Were can I get this famous file ./etc/sysconfig/apache or instructions
to make it. I cannot find this file in my system.
This may be a bit academic because I guess I could try to make it work
by just commenting the "If" and "/If" lines around "LoadModule" and
"AddModule", but I would like to follow the thinking of whoever made
these start and conf files.
.
Thanks, Joe Fazenda
