Jay, In my configuration mod_php4 shows up as one of the installed modules. And I believe the connection to your difficulty may be that the directive AddType application/x-httpd-php .php appears between the tags: <IfModule mod_php4.c> ... </IfModule> Thus if Apache does not find mod_php4 installed it will not invoke the directive AddType application/x-httpd-php .php and it will not know that files with the extension .php are to be parsed by php. I beleive there are other ways around this, which do not involve use of php as a module. But I really can only speak to what is working on my system. And my system has php4 installed as a module.

Mike,

Should "mod_php" show up under Installed modules in Apache and not just [PHP4 module]

Installed modules: [ PHP4 module ] [ Apache perl module (mod_perl) ] [ Apache DAV module (mod_dav) is not installed ] [ Apache Python module (mod_python) ]

At this point, I'm afraid you have me stuck ;-(

I'm hoping someone else can guess what is wrong.

Micheal,

application/x-httpd-php phtml pht php in /etc/httpd/mime.types

and AddType application/x-httpd-php .php in /etc/httpd/httpd.conf?

Both lines are already present in both files.

After numerious tries I cannot get phpMyAdmin to work. I always get the following message:

"You have chosen to download a file of type: application/x-httpd-php from /srv/www/htdocs/phpMyadmin" and then asks me if I want to download the file "index.php" whenever I click on it.

I have the following installed: (all of which were installed, deleted an reinstalled via yast2)

mysql-3.23.55-14 phpMyAdmin-2.4.0-16 apache-1.3.27-41

Apache and mysql are runnung and I haven't added a password for root yet in mysql.

Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g. Your MySQL connection id is 2 to server version: 3.23.55-Max-log

Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.

mysql>Webserver version: [ Apache/1.3.27 (Linux/SuSE) mod_python/2.7.8 Python/2.2.2 PHP/4.3.1 mod_perl/1.27 ]

Installed modules: [ PHP4 module ] [ Apache perl module (mod_perl) ] [ Apache DAV module (mod_dav) is not installed ] [ Apache Python module (mod_python) ] documentation[ This host is not configured as server for the SuSE help system ]

What am I doing wrong or what has to be changed?
