cgi

running windows XP, Xitami 2.5c2, and php 5.2.9

tried installing many versions of PHP after v5.2.9 and always get a CGI
error, none of the php pages load.

I never worked with Xitami as web server but this could get you started:
- check your webserver's log files, this could be your windows eventlog or some logging file from your webserver; see if there are any errors after you have called your php script

- rename php.ini to something different and restart your webserver service; if the error disappears, the error could be related to an extension directive in your existing php.ini file

- does a simple phpinfo() also results in a CGI error?

Keep me updated if you tried the above.

Re: cgi

First let me say thanks for your reponse.

Installed PHP 5.3 and did get the CGI to work.

Now a separate issue: I use several programs which use PHP (php MyEdit,
phpMyAdmin, and NucleusCMS for BLOG's) after installing PHP 5.3 these
interfaces would not work. I tried reboot, checking the ini file, tried
installing the ini in windows, then windows/system32. No matter what I
tried I couldn't get the programs to work.

reverted to 5.2.9 and everything is back to normal.

I've been trying to get the new versions of PHP to work for some time, think
I'll just stick with 5.2.9 and forget about it.

Re: cgi

5.2.12 is the latest version in the 5.2 branch.
5.3 brings a lot of improvements and a couple of new features, but it
can be some incompatibility issues with the pre 5.3 applications.
I think phpmyadmin does have a version which is compatible with php
5.3 out-of-the-box.
I don't know the other two tools you are using, but you should try to
download the latest version of them from their official site.

most applications should work both with the PHP 5.2 and 5.3 branch, i.e. phpmyadmin is available for PHP 5 and there is a separate version available for PHP 3+4.

Could you clarify "would not work" a bit? Which error is posted when one of the applications is called? Do you get a PHP error or one directly from your webserver? php.ini is searched for in the following order:
* SAPI-specific location (don't know about Xitami's setting here)
* PHPRC env variable (if set)
* [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\PHP] registry setting
* the webserver's bin directory
* C:\Windows
The currently loaded php.ini can be retrieved through "php_ini_loaded_file()".

I know, but for example mediawiki is know to be incompatible with 5.3
at this time, so this kind of problems exists.

Re: cgi

I have downloaded and installed PHP versions: 5.2.9-2, 5.2.10, 5.2.12,
5.3.0, and lastly 5.3.1. Originally when installed each version gave a CGI
error and nothing associated with PHP would work. I did get 5.3.1 to
install and operate without the CGI error. I was able to access phpinfo and
some PHP web pages.

In each case after long hours of frustration I have gone back to PHP 5.2.9,
and it just works! ! !

I have in fact downloaded the latest versions of the tools previously
mentioned, all the tools work with 5.2.9, anything beyond that and the
pages/interfaces do not open. I find no PHP specific errors in the event
viewer. The only error I find in the server log relates to use of local
time versus a time zone, and only deals with Nucleus.

do you have to use Xitami as webserver? I would advice to use Apache2 to test if the problems persist with the various PHP branches and steppings.
PHP will not automatically log errors, you first have to enable it through the "error_reporting", "log_errors" and "error_log" directives directives in php.ini. Restart your webserver and check again if errors are logged now.

In php 5.3 you have to set your timezone in your php.ini.
for example:
date.timezone =3D "Europe/Budapest"
for me.
