PHP, apache, and phpmyadmin

[asciifish]

I'm trying to get a webserver running. Following the directions on another post since I needed, sql and php on the server, i emerged phpmyadmin and let that install apache, mod_php, etc. I change the /etc/conf.d/apache2 to read like the following:

Code: Select all

# Config file for /etc/init.d/apache2
                                                                                
# An example from /etc/apache2/conf/modules.d/40_mod_ssl.conf:
#
# <IfDefine SSL>
#  <IfModule !mod_ssl.c>
#    LoadModule ssl_module    extramodules/mod_ssl.so
#  </IfModule>
# </IfDefine>
#
# This means that the mod_ssl.so DSO module is only loaded
# into the server when you pass "-D SSL" at startup.  To
# enable WebDAV, add "-D DAV -D DAV_FS".  If you installed
# mod_php then add "-D PHP4".  For more options, please
# read the files in the /etc/apache2/conf/modules.d directory.
                                                                                
#APACHE2_OPTS="-D SSL -D SSL"

and restarted apache.

My problem is that when i view a php page, i see all the php code. What did i do wrong in the setup? What did I leave out?

Do you have any lines like this?

Code: Select all

AddType  application/x-httpd-php         .php .php4 .php3 .phtml
AddType  application/x-httpd-php-source  .phps

From your /etc/conf.d/apache2 as quoted above:

Code: Select all

#APACHE2_OPTS="-D SSL -D SSL"

I think what you meant to do was:

Code: Select all

APACHE2_OPTS="-D SSL -D PHP4"

as decribed in the configuration file's comments. That is, uncomment the line and enable PHP4.

Where should I put these? I added them to commonapache2.conf but i still end up looking at the php code when i try access the site.

In /etc/conf.d/apache2. The file you posted at the thead of this thread is not correct and my comments relate to that file.

There are some further steps after installing PHP that need to be done. They are listed in the ebuild post install

Code: Select all

ebuild /var/db/pkg/dev-php/mod_php/mod_php-VERSION.ebuild config

Do this and many of your problems will go away.
