fatk Posted December 29, 2003 Report Share Posted December 29, 2003 Well i hope i can describe what i would like to do is good, but let me know if something is unclear. I am going to set up a parition for an mp3 jukebox of my family's fav CD's that they can pull up on their computers. Now my family have no clue how get on linux, and i don't want to have them navagating through tons of different folders to find it. Now I would like to code something for them to have like a intranet webpage they could go to, and load their list from there. And even search for songs. Now my friend and I can code the webpage with PHP to do that kind of stuff, my question is how woudl I get apache to use the scritps with the files. I know that for anything for PHP to work i need to have it in /var/www/html/ , which i am guessing is my apache directory for the pages. What do i need to setup/do to get the intranet page working? I don't need the page to be internal, since the server isn't public anyway. I hope what I want to do is clear, like I said let me know if i can clear it up any better.

Some of this still may be irrelevant, but I wasn't sure. I hope this is what you are asking for. With these installed and apache installed, php pages work fine on my box. As a matter of fact, my avatar is actually a php script using php-gd that is running on my box. And you are correct for the default location of where to put the scripts. Then they can just point their browser to http://your-servers-LAN-ip-address/name-of-script.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatk Posted December 29, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2003 (edited) [root@localhost kevin]# rpm -qa | grep php php-mysql-4.3.0-2mdk php-readline-4.3.0-1mdk libphp_common430-430-11mdk apache2-mod_php-2.0.44_4.3.1-2mdk php-imap-4.3.0-3mdk php-pgsql-4.3.0-4mdk php-gd-4.3.0-2mdk php-ldap-4.3.0-3mdk [root@localhost kevin]# That is what i have installed. My question now is, if I build a script to look in that in a different directory will that work? So say my script is here /var/www/html and i want it to look in say /jukebox will that work as long s the file permissions allow it? That is my main concern that when someone calls the page up, it will access that directory ( the jukebox directory) if it will then that will be great, then my problem is solved. If not, do I have to make that directory like a virtual server or something else? actually, know my friend and i discovered something. We got the script to work but, it yet it dosen't. PHP is in safe mode, and i can't find the ini file to turn it off. Anyone know where the file I need is?

fatk Posted December 29, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2003 got it, I never installed the php.ini file...which i do'nt get, but i installed the rpm for it, and I was able to get it to read the directory in question, the script still has errors, but that is coding issues.
