Hey,
I installed apache like;
aptitude install apache2 php5 libapache2-mod-php5
As returned by apache2ctl, I am running;
Apache/2.2.4 (Debian) PHP/5.2.3-1+b1
I point my browser to;
http://localhost/apache2-default/test.php
The file test.php contains this code;
<html><body>
<h1>PHP Test</h1>
<br />
<?php print "Hello World!"; ?>
</body></html>
The browser outputs only;
PHP Test
The script doesn't get executed.
There seems to be a large number of ways to setup a LAMP server so it's
difficult to know if a particular set of instructions apply to your setup. I
have posted this problem here several weeks back and then tried the PHP-Users
list to no avail. I would really like the get this setup on my Linux system
and not have to use Windows, which I have no problem at all running PHP on
IIS. Any help is appreciated!
Thanks,
Randy
PS. I'm running Lenny
I had a lenny box sitting here with no apache on it, this is what I did to
get it up and running:
apt-get update
apt-get install apache2
(checked to make sure apache was running, lsof -i:80 )
apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5
a2enmod php5 (it should report that php5 is already enabled, never hurts
to check though)
/etc/init.d/apache2 stop
/etc/init.d/apache2 start
echo "<?php phpinfo(); ?>" > /var/www/test.php
lynx --dump http://localhost/test.php
That's it.
