Hi.
Have anyone succeeded with setting up PHP as a CGI with RedHat8.0?
Best regards / Martin

Mike,
there are several solutions to your problem. Here are a few:
******** 1) Redirect visitors to the new page
To do this, create/modify a .htaccess file in the directory where your old
page is and include the following line:
Redirect permanent oldpage.html http://yourserver.com/newpage.php
This will tell Apache that oldpage.html is no longer valid and
automatically redirect visitors to the new page. Note: This only
works if your webserver is Apache, other webservers probably have this
option elsewhere. See also:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_alias.html#redirect
******** 2) Force PHP parsing of your old file
To do this, create/modify a .htaccess file in the directory where your old
page is and include the following lines:
<Location oldpage.htm>
ForceType application/x-httpd-php
</Location>
This will force apache to process oldpage.htm as a PHP file. See also:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_mime.html#forcetype
******** 3) Force PHP parsing of all .htm files
This is similar to method 2, but you will need access to your httpd.conf
file. Open it, and look for the line that says:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
and then simply add .htm at the end of it:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .htm
This will tell Apache to send all .htm files on your server through the
PHP parser. It works, but performance-wise it is not recommended to send
all files through the PHP parser. See also:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_mime.html#addtype
IMHO, I believe you should try these options in the order given, but
depending on your needs you might go with another option.
Good luck with that...
Joerg.
PS: And yes, [? should be <?php and ?] should be ?>

I installed Apache and PHP and when I try and run PHP files, they won't
accept variable values that apache tries to post to it. I've tried using
both forms and the format that you see above in the subject. Anyone got a
guess at what may be wrong?

I suspect the problem is that your register_globals is turned off. If you
are accessing the variable as
$variable
and it doesn't seem to show anything, try accessing it as:
$_GET['variable'];

At http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.apache2.php
in the "PHP and Apache 2 on Linux," it states:
10. ./configure --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs
With RH Linix 8.0 install, there does not appear to be an Apache apxs file
available for the configure run (realizing the RH Apache install paths are
different).
What does one do to get going here?
It looks like everyone is struggling with Red Hat PHP upgrades when tied to
Apache 2. There has to be a better way.

Install the apache-devel package as always?

Yup, RedHat chose to bundle a barely working web server, at least when it
comes to dynamic content. Luckily Apache-1.3 rpms are all over, just use
that instead.

Ok, sending from the home machine this time.
The problem: Installed RedHat8 with stock RPMs, and everything was fine.
Then I decided to upgrade Postgres to 7.3 (some things that I just
couldn't wait for). Then decided to upgrade to php 4.3.0.
Bzzzzt! Wrong answer!
So, the existing, previously-working php no longer works with Postgres
(looking for the 7.2.x libraries). But I cannot build from source, as the
newer gcc/glibc combo refuses to build...
So even with the older php, I cannot get to Postgres. I was told the
compile problem was fixed in cvs, but I tried with
php4-STABLE-200301080830 with no luck.
So is someone looking at this? Without reverting to the originally
supplied php and Postgres, how can I get this thing to work?

Incase anyone is interested, I fixed my problem.
For some reason, the version of shtool that came with php-4.3.0 was not working for
me, so I used
the one that came with php-4.2.3 - problem solved
