Hi - While I have a work-around for this issue, I thought I would post
it here to see what, if any, feedback I might get. Perhaps I am doing
something wrong? I run a rather complex server environment where I use
both Apache HTTPD and Apache Tomcat servers in combination and host a
number of virtual hosts (named and all using the same IP address) On one
of my virtual hosts I recently installed WordPress and this required me
to also add in PHP support, since WordPress uses mostly PHP scripts.
Since this is only needed on one of my virtual hosts, I tried to
configure just that virtual host to include the additional stuff needed
to support PHP. My attempts to do so failed and the workaround was to
include the PHP configuration stuff (php7.conf) at a global level that
will affect all the virtual hosts that I am supporting. For now, that is
OK and won't bother anything but I am wondering why my initial approach
failed and if there is something that I am missing or don't understand.
Basically, the symptoms, of what happened, was that the DirectoryIndex
index.php setting fails when I just included the php7.conf file in the
configuration file for the virtual host. But when I included the
php7.file in the global http.conf or in the global default-server.conf
files then it works! Error logs do not show anything other than the fact
that an index file could not be found when referencing a directory that
does indeed have an index.php file in it. I will show the pertinent
config files (urls obscured) below in the configuration that fails, and
I hope this is not overwhelming. First here is the version info for
Apache just so we are all on the same page -

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is php7.conf that I am including -
cat php7.conf
<IfModule mod_php7.c>
<FilesMatch "\.ph(p[345]?|tml)$">
SetHandler application/x-httpd-php
</FilesMatch>
<FilesMatch "\.php[345]?s$">
SetHandler application/x-httpd-php-source
</FilesMatch>
DirectoryIndex index.php4
DirectoryIndex index.php5
DirectoryIndex index.php
</IfModule>
--------------------------------------------------------------------
And this is my virtual host configuration (comments removed and URLs
obscured)-
cat myvirtualhost.conf
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin [email protected]
ServerName www.myvirtualhost.org
ServerAlias myvirtualhost.org
DocumentRoot "/srv/tomcat/myvirtualhost_webapps/ROOT"

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

</IfModule>
# THIS INCLUDE STATEMENT AND/OR THE DIRECTIVES IN PHP7.CONF FAILS

as I said, if I move the "Include /etc/apache2/conf.d/php7.conf"
statement to a global configuration file, then everything works OK. Any
kind guru got an explanation, I don't grok this one... Perhaps this is
a bug? Thanks in advance... Marc..
