Apache + PHP --> Standard MDK 9.1 packets: Problems...

[seantech]

Whazzup, fellow MDK-Users?

 

I have 9.1 installed on a remote location, only now I am having web-server problems... Apache seems to be fine it self, but a php script that a friend made doesn't. No, it isn't the script... it has been tried on a server or two and seems to work fine!!!

 

I also heard from a friend that MDK 9.1 --> Apache + PHP --> Php was missing out on php.ini... might that be my problem???

 

 

I would love to hear the answer to my problem asap :P Then again, who wouldn't.

Here's what I have installed and php works fine for me:

# rpm -qa | grep php

php-gd-4.3.0-2mdk

php-xml-4.3.0-2mdk

php-xmlrpc-4.3.0-2mdk

php-cgi-4.3.1-11.1mdk

apache2-mod_php-2.0.44_4.3.1-2mdk

php-ini-4.3.0-1mdk

php-dba_bundle-4.3.0-4mdk

php-imap-4.3.0-3mdk

php-domxml-4.3.0-2mdk

php-ldap-4.3.0-3mdk

php-manual-en-4.3.0-2mdk

php-pgsql-4.3.0-4mdk

php-pear-4.3.0-3mdk

php-cli-4.3.1-11.1mdk

php-readline-4.3.0-1mdk

php-rrdtool-1.0.40-2mdk

php-xslt-4.3.0-3mdk

php-tclink-4.3.0_3.3.1-12mdk

libphp_common430-430-11.1mdk

phpgroupware-0.9.14.006-0.1mdk

php430-devel-430-11.1mdk

 

It may be overkill, but at first php didn't work for me, so I did:

urpmi php

 

And it said "The following packages contain php: blahblahblah" And I just did

 

urpmi whatever

 

for each one.

You may want to explain what error you are getting to better troubleshoot what the problem may be.

 

Here's a handy scipt to put in /var/www/html (or wherever your web root is located) that will tell you just about all you want to know about your php install (if it is working):

<?









phpinfo();







?>

*Save as phpinfo.php and call up as you would a web page

 

Also, just had the occasion to install apache2 and php again on a fresh install of Mandrake 9.1. Here's all I installed to get a php-nuke site up and running:

apache2-2.0.47-1.1mdk

apache-conf-2.0.44-11.1mdk

apache2-common-2.0.47-1.2

apache2-modules-2.0.47-1.1mdk

apache2-mod_php-2.0.44_4.3.1-2mdk



libapr0-2.0.47-1.1mdk

libdb4.0-4.0.14-6mdk

libtool-1.4.3-1mdk

lynx-2.8.5-0.13mdk.dev.12



libphp_common430-430-11.1mdk

php-cli-4.3.1-11.1mdk

php-ini-4.3.0-1mdk

 

and I needed to install MySQL for the database:

MySQL-4.0.11a-5mdk

MySQL-common-4.0.11a-5mdk

perl-DBI-1.32-1mdk

MySQL-client-4.0.11a-5mdk

libmysql12-4.0.11a-5mdk
