[Resolved] PHP, working or not???

dmacman1962

I just installed apache 2.x and PHP 4.3.2 (via ForServ) for the 3rd time. I can go to the localhost page and see the version of PHP and log into phpmyadmin just fine.

The issues I am having is I cannot seem to either get PHP to send a variable to Flash, or to receive it from flash. I have a simple test page that lets you enter some text in and it will display it in a dynamic text field.

Works great on any machine but this one. It does not display what you typed? It does on the web. I cannot figure out if PHP is running completely or not?

I called my ISP and he emailed me his php.ini file and I changed the directory info to work on my system, and still the same results?

Here is the address of my test file that works on the web:

http://www.datestsite.com/testfile.htm

Anyone have the slightest clue what this is?

Thanks in advance everyone,

Don

Hi,

please post the php.ini.

Maybe an issue with register_globals ? Try to change that configuration variable from Off to On or vice versa depending on the actual setting.

How does the flass work exactly ?

Yes, That was it. Although, a friend gave me that fix, it didn't work because my system was booting from the "F" drive, not the "C" drive. I was editing the php.ini on c. When I edited the globals on the f drive, it worked.

Thanks a lot!

Hi,

I have the same problem.
$POST or $GET does not have any values I
send through my forms.
I'm using PHP on Linux.
Can you tall me what I should be doing to

Hi,

which php version is installed ? Please post some code.

The version is 4.3.2 on Linux.

This is the configure command I used:

'./configure' '--prefix=/usr/local/apache' '--with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs' '--with-config-file-path=/usr/local/apache/php' '--with-mysql'

Also, I searched my harddisk for a php.ini file,
there is no such file.
Is it necessary?

No forms work.

Thanks,

You might have to create a php.ini or copy the php.ini-dist from the php source directory to the location where php expects it (I think in this case /usr/local/apache/php/php.ini).

I just did that, but the problem is it's almost empty:

this is what it looks like:

; php.ini for PEAR tests

include_path=..
