my pathetic PHP-Apache setup problem

[Atealtha]

I did emerge apache php (or install for you non-gentoo users) and setup by the dot on the php.net documentation. When I loadup galeon and goto http://localhost/phpinfo.php (my php test page) I get the MIME dialog. I cancel, remove the MIME type for php files in my galeon settings, and STILL get that dialog!

I tried with both binary php and module.

(you may or may not have already done this)

you have to edit your apache config file so it knows what to do with php files.

I run php on my Debian box and in the httpd.conf file I have the following:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

AddType application/x-tar .tgz
AddType image/bmp .bmp


Also, you will need to make sure that the module gets loaded in your httpd.conf i.e.

LoadModule php4_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/libphp4.so

[Atealtha]

mine uses apache.conf and commonapache.conf

in apache.conf I added:

LoadModule php4_module /usr/lib/apache-extramodules/libphp4.so

in commonapache I have:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

still doesnt work

[Hayl]

have you tried asking on the #gentoo irc channel on freenode?

You might have to add this line to your mime.types files:

application/x-httpd-php php
