IIRC, following /usr/share/doc/README.Debian.gz has 4 simple steps that should get you up and running with little trouble. I only have apache and php4 installed. I don't think you need php4-cgi. Also, I think Debian's /etc/mime.types has all that's necessary, without needing any extra AddType handlers in httpd.conf; I only have "TypesConfig /etc/mime.types", and no uncommented AddHandler statements related to php. Just make sure you have the LoadModule line uncommented. good times, Vineet -- http://www.doorstop.net/ -- http://www.debian.org/ Set your computer Free.
