Hello all. I seem to be having a terrible tim ewith something that is so simple it makes me sick. I have a server running FC2. it has Apache 2.x.x on it and it came installed with php-4.x.x. Sorry I don't have the exact versions but fatigue and frustration has taken over. I can get them if you really need them. Here's the major problem. When I try and view a simple php page in the browser, it doesn't display anything that has to do with the php tags. By that I mean it won't recognize the php directives (I guess). I made a simple page (the infamous phpinfo () page) right out of the books. Saved it as test.php just like it said. Made sure that apache is running and browsed to the page. Nothing, no errors, no nothing. I have made up some other pages (mostly from some php books - real simple ones) to view and they all display the same action. Now when these machines (I actually have a couple of these servers and they all act the same) were installed, it was from FC2 CD's with the webserver full package. There were all kinds of php files installed, etc. In my httpd.conf file it calls the php.ini file, etc. So it seems to be all there. Can anyone out there help me figure out how to make this work? I would be truly indebted to you, put you on my Christmas card list, etc.
View the source of your page in the browser. If you see the PHP code chances are you haven't told Apache about PHP. Read the manual (yes, there is a manual: http://php.net/install.unix.apache2) for specific instructions, but your httpd.conf needs at least the following two lines (paths on your system may differ)...
