[arch-general] New install configuring php - only get text - feeling stupid -- help!
Guys, I can't believe this. On my new arch install on my laptop, I'm finally getting around to configuring the web server and I am having trouble with php. When I try and access a php page, all I get is the text of the script echoed to the browser. I have heard about this happening before and I think I have even fixed it before, but I can't for the life of me remember how? I've been through the wiki at: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/LAMP I have the following loaded: php 5.3.1-2 php-apache 5.3.1-2 php-curl 5.3.1-2 php-docs 5.3.0-1 php-enchant 5.3.1-2 php-gd 5.3.1-2 php-gmp 5.3.1-2 php-intl 5.3.1-2 php-ldap 5.3.1-2 php-mcrypt 5.3.1-2 php-odbc 5.3.1-2 php-pear 5.3.1-2 php-pgsql 5.3.1-2 php-pspell 5.3.1-2 php-snmp 5.3.1-2 php-sqlite 5.3.1-2 php-tidy 5.3.1-2 php-xsl 5.3.1-2 My php config in httpd.conf is: LoadModule php5_module modules/libphp5.so DirectoryIndex index.php index.html index.htm Include conf/extra/php5_module.conf I've configured php and php works from the command line just fine and will dump phpinfo() to a terminal, but from my browser pointed at: http://localhost/dcr/phpinfo.php all I get is: "<?php phpinfo(); ?>" (no quotes) which is nothing more than the content of my test script. I have also configured php.ini with the proper: open_basedir =.:/srv/http:/usr/share/pear:/home:/tmp:/var/lib/egroupware <snip> include_path = ".:/srv/http/secure:/srv/http/htdocs:/srv/http/dl:/usr/share/pear:/srv/http" to accomadate the php include and defined the directory to /dcr. In fact I can browse /dcr just fine, but clicking on the phpinfo() script just returns the text of the script like all my other pages. What's the trick?

Guys,
I can't believe this. On my new arch install on my laptop, I'm finally getting around to configuring the web server and I am having trouble with php. When I try and access a php page, all I get is the text of the script echoed to the browser. I have heard about this happening before and I think I have even fixed it before, but I can't for the life of me remember how? I've been through the wiki at:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/LAMP
I have the following loaded:
php 5.3.1-2 php-apache 5.3.1-2 php-curl 5.3.1-2 php-docs 5.3.0-1 php-enchant 5.3.1-2 php-gd 5.3.1-2 php-gmp 5.3.1-2 php-intl 5.3.1-2 php-ldap 5.3.1-2 php-mcrypt 5.3.1-2 php-odbc 5.3.1-2 php-pear 5.3.1-2 php-pgsql 5.3.1-2 php-pspell 5.3.1-2 php-snmp 5.3.1-2 php-sqlite 5.3.1-2 php-tidy 5.3.1-2 php-xsl 5.3.1-2
My php config in httpd.conf is:
LoadModule php5_module modules/libphp5.so DirectoryIndex index.php index.html index.htm Include conf/extra/php5_module.conf
I've configured php and php works from the command line just fine and will dump phpinfo() to a terminal, but from my browser pointed at:
http://localhost/dcr/phpinfo.php
all I get is: "<?php phpinfo(); ?>" (no quotes) which is nothing more than the content of my test script. I have also configured php.ini with the proper:
open_basedir =.:/srv/http:/usr/share/pear:/home:/tmp:/var/lib/egroupware <snip>
include_path = ".:/srv/http/secure:/srv/http/htdocs:/srv/http/dl:/usr/share/pear:/srv/http"
to accomadate the php include and defined the directory to /dcr. In fact I can browse /dcr just fine, but clicking on the phpinfo() script just returns the text of the script like all my other pages.
What's the trick?

The only thing I can think of is that you've placed the Include line before the other LoadModule directives. If you look at /etc/httpd/conf/extra/php5_module.conf, it checks if mod_dir (and mod_php) is loaded before applying its directives.

Hmm... I've got it working now and I don't really know what I did to get it working :-( I didn't add or changee any of the includess, but I did clean up an unrealated path or two in httpd.conf. I had one path definedd to a "download" directory that had been movedd to a "dl" directory but I don't see how that could have been the problem. I had added additiional modulles as well, but then I backed all of the module changes out and php conntinued to work?? I still have a few places in my pages to change a download to dl, but that is the only thing I can see that could have caused the problem. I'll keep my ouigi board handy in case it happens again! -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

It's either not loading the module (since extra/php5_module.conf
depends on it), OR you're missing the AddType lines like these:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
But most likely php5_module.conf should be handling the addtypes.
