Ok... Here's what I've done thus far...
I started by trying to enable php via /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf. This causes an error telling me the php4 library is already loaded. The second part of this problem is that when going to the test.php (which just runs phpinfo()) it tells me it's an application and that I need to download it.
The other part is that on panther I'd upgraded apache and php to the newest (stable) versions but the ones in tiger are older.
So anyway I redownloaded them, built them and ran the make install. But it does not install.. I did it from a superuser terminal so it should have installed, but after building and installing, php -V (or is it -v) anyway, it shows the same version as before, same when I go to the terminal and type httpd -v. (I also built and installed apache also)
Has any one else experienced this or, maybe better yet does any one know how to make php and apache work on tiger?
BTW I've already gone through the httpd.conf file so if your going to tell me to activate it there, please include the line of text to enter that activates it since uncommenting the loadmodule line does nothing.
Currently, when I go to the test page I get an html page which has a tag in it that say generated by cocoa html or something like that, any way, it shows the line <? phpinfo(); ?> and thats all thats on the page. This is totaly beyond me. I cannot figure out why this is happening. Why is it taking the content of the php script and turning it into an html page?
April.
P.S. With all the problems I've had with tiger would it just be better to go pack to the stable and trustworthy panther?
