php does not work

Hi all,
i am just trying to install myphproject (the first php on this server) on
Suse linux 10.2, Apache 2.something.
Dns is working, virtual domain is ok. But when i try to call
myphpadm.os2.local/index.php, my browser always asks what to to ... open
with / save to disk.

Looking with yast to the http server setup tells me, that module php5 is
active. /etc/apache/conf.d/php5.conf tells me that AddHandler for .php and
some other file types is (should be?) done.

Where else must i have a look to get it working?

Thanks in Advance!

greetings from germany
Chris

Re: php does not work

Hello Davide,
i tried to include php5.conf in the httpd.conf, i tried to set it in
/etc/sysconfig/apache2 (without .conf ???), in
/etc/apache2/sysconfig.d/include.conf it has been already included.

I always started apache new (with yast, when i ecit the http server config
it tells mw that the congiguration is written and apache activated).

No chance, the index.php is always offered to be downloaded.

Where can i find apachectl and how is it used? a find / apachectl didnt give
a result

greetings, Chris

This is also a symptom of your browser attempting to open a file rather
than your browser requesting apache to parse the file to the browser.

Just how are you "calling" that file? Is the browser on the same machine as
apache?

Where is myphpadm.os2.local/index.php in relation to your document root?

What happens when you put http://myphpadm.os2.local/index.php into your
browser address bar?

What happens when you put http://localhost
into your browser address bar?

What happens when you put http://localhost/index.php into your browser
address bar?

What ip address is returned when you ping or trace myphpadm.os2.local? Is
it the address of the machine running apache?


Just questions to help diagnose..

Open a shell and run:

php -f /index.php

If it doesn't work, the problem could be with php.

If it does, try to run the same script as a cgi.

Re: php does not work

Hi Mark, Davide, Ottavio,

trying myphpadmin.os2.local or http://myphpadmin.os2.local in the browser,
with or without /index.php, always the same result. The browser wants to
download / open the file as sourcecode.

And yes, the browser is running on the same machine as the apache.

And the solution / workaround is ... when i try the same adress
myphpadmin.os2.local from a different linux or windows machine, the browser
shows the page as it should be. Tadaaaa. Funny, really funny.

Browser on same machine ... opens / downloads the file directly as
sourcecode.
Different machine ... works perfectly!!!

So many thanks to all of you for your help and hints, maybee tomorrow (or
today?) i will post the next problem(s).

greetings from germany
Chris

have you tried putting those in your httpd.conf

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php5 .html .htm .inc
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

Re: php does not work

Hi Henri,
unfortunately the machine already is delivered and is working at my
customer, so i can´t try out your hint. As i have seen (posting from 14.08,
07:55) the effect is only shown when i call myphpadmin.os2.local from then
server machine itself. When i call this url from a different machine, all
works perfectly.

On my next suse / apache / php project i will check out if your hint helps
to get php working local on the same machine.

Thank you!
