I can't get PHP to work. Apache just won't process it althought it should. Does anyone have any ideas on what I could try next? - tk

Can you provide a bit more information? Symptoms? Error messages? Last few lines of the error log from Apache? Are you, by chance, seeing the PHP source code displayed in the browser rather than having it executed on the server? If so, this is a common httpd.conf error. Please let us know what specifically is happening. Scott -- ------------------------------------------------------------ "I don't mind Microsoft making money.

Look in /var/log/httpd/error_log. That should tell you what went wrong, and yes, duplicate lines can do that. Secondly, you shouldn't edit those files directly. SuSE has put together a functioning package to set up apache, and if you edit those files manually, you're on your own. The SuSE way to set up apache as of 7.2 is to edit /etc/rc.config.d/apache.rc.config followed by running SuSEconfig. It can't handle everything perhaps, but that's the way I set up perl, php and tomcat and it works regards Anders On Monday 03 September 2001 06.27, Tom Kostiainen wrote:

I tried adding those lines. When I excuted 'rcapache start' it returned 'running' and when I then tried to connect to localhost I couldn't. 'rcapache status' reported 'unused'.

When I restored by conf files localhost worked again (and now 'rcapache start' returned 'done'?).

What does this mean? Can dublicate lines cause this?

Did you try changing the suse_*module.conf files?

/etc/httpd/suse_loadmodule.conf should contain:

LoadModule perl_module /usr/lib/apache/libperl.so LoadModule php4_module /usr/lib/apache/libphp4.so

And, suse_addmodule.conf:

AddModule mod_perl.c AddModule mod_php4.c

Shouldn't you have done an rcapache restart? Although I completely agree with Anders comments re. not editing the files directly I think that it's worth noting that your files had many entries (like 20 or so) for different modules. In comparison, I have entries for Perl and PHP only. Is it possible that they're conflicting with each other? httpd.conf was configured correctly (essentially the default file). Perhaps you should try re-installing Apache from scratch. M
