Click to See Complete Forum and Search --> : PHP support in Apache from fresh RH8 install
Yo yo yo,
About 3 weeks ago I installed the RH8.0 computer that I am using now. I got apache to work, yeah. Now I need to get php support into apache. I tried looking into a tutorial but their assumption what that php was not already installed so I just got confuzed.
Is there just a generic /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file I can use for the configuration of apachy with PHP??

Have you first tried Redhat's own online documentation as I do know they have a section on Apache and likely PHP.
Their Apache docs should tell you about httpd.conf.

http://www.redhat.com/support/resources/howto/rhl80.html
OK I went there and did alittle searching, and I found http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/database/RHDB-2.1-Manual/prog/c7773.html.
I read through the page, so I knew what I was getting into. When It came time to edit the /ect/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file, the tutorial told me to...
Make sure that these lines are uncommented in httpd.conf:
LoadModule php4_module libexec/libphp4.so
AddModule mod_php4.c
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
The lines it says to uncomment were never there in the first place, so I added them. After which I tried restarted the server, but the server did not restart. There was an error somewhere.
httpd failed. The error was: Stopping httpd: [OK]
Starting httpd:
Apache 1.3 configuration directives found
please read /usr/share/doc.httpd-2.0.40/migration.html
[FAILED]
I checked to make sure I have php installed so I did a...
[root@localhost root]# rpm -aq *php*
php-pgsql-4.2.2-8.0.8
php-dbg-client-2.10-6
php-manual-4.2.2-8.0.8
php-mysql-4.2.2-8.0.8
asp2php-0.76.2-3
php-dbg-server-2.10pl3-6
asp2php-gtk-0.76.2-3
php-dbg-base-2.10-4
php-devel-4.2.2-8.0.8
php-imap-4.2.2-8.0.8
php-odbc-4.2.2-8.0.8
php-4.2.2-8.0.8
php-ldap-4.2.2-8.0.8
php-snmp-4.2.2-8.0.8
At this point I dont know what I did wrong
I got it now
All I had to do was to add the lines
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
LoadModule php4_module libexec/libphp4.so
To the /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file
