[Resolved] apache configured to load php as module, but instead runs it as a cgi?

masterblaster

Has anyone seen this before?

I followed step 4a on http://www.thesitewizard.com/archive/php4install.shtml but still no change in php.info, do i need to restart my machine?

tsinka

No,

you just need to restart the web server. Please post httpd.conf.

ExtendedStatus controls whether Apache will generate "full" status

information (ExtendedStatus On) or just basic information (ExtendedStatus

Off) when the "server-status" handler is called. The default is Off.

#
#ExtendedStatus On

Section 2: 'Main' server configuration

The directives in this section set up the values used by the 'main'

server, which responds to any requests that aren't handled by a

<VirtualHost> definition. These values also provide defaults for

any <VirtualHost> containers you may define later in the file.

All of these directives may appear inside <VirtualHost> containers,

in which case these default settings will be overridden for the

virtual host being defined.

ServerAdmin: Your address, where problems with the server should be

e-mailed. This address appears on some server-generated pages, such

as error documents. e.g. admin@your-domain.com

#
ServerAdmin neil.mccall@theleadagency.co.uk

ServerName gives the name and port that the server uses to identify itself.

This can often be determined automatically, but we recommend you specify

it explicitly to prevent problems during startup.

If this is not set to valid DNS name for your host, server-generated

redirections will not work. See also the UseCanonicalName directive.

If your host doesn't have a registered DNS name, enter its IP address here.

You will have to access it by its address anyway, and this will make

redirections work in a sensible way.

#
ServerName edmund.theleadagency.co.uk:80

UseCanonicalName: Determines how Apache constructs self-referencing

URLs and the SERVER_NAME and SERVER_PORT variables.

When set "Off", Apache will use the Hostname and Port supplied

by the client. When set "On", Apache will use the value of the

ServerName directive.

#
UseCanonicalName Off

DocumentRoot: The directory out of which you will serve your

documents. By default, all requests are taken from this directory, but

symbolic links and aliases may be used to point to other locations.

#
DocumentRoot "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/htdocs"

Each directory to which Apache has access can be configured with respect

to which services and features are allowed and/or disabled in that

directory (and its subdirectories).

First, we configure the "default" to be a very restrictive set of

features.

#
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
</Directory>

Note that from this point forward you must specifically allow

particular features to be enabled - so if something's not working as

you might expect, make sure that you have specifically enabled it

below.

This should be changed to whatever you set DocumentRoot to.

#
<Directory "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/htdocs">

Possible values for the Options directive are "None", "All",

or any combination of:

Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks SymLinksifOwnerMatch ExecCGI MultiViews

Note that "MultiViews" must be named explicitly --- "Options All"

doesn't give it to you.

The Options directive is both complicated and important. Please see

http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/core.html#options

for more information.

#
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks

AllowOverride controls what directives may be placed in .htaccess files.

It can be "All", "None", or any combination of the keywords:

Options FileInfo AuthConfig Limit

#
AllowOverride None

Controls who can get stuff from this server.

#
Order allow,deny
Allow from all

</Directory>

UserDir: The name of the directory that is appended onto a user's home

directory if a ~user request is received. Be especially careful to use

proper, forward slashes here. On Windows NT, "Personal/My Website"

is a more appropriate choice.

#
UserDir "My Documents/My Website"

Control access to UserDir directories. The following is an example

for a site where these directories are restricted to read-only.

You must correct the path for the root to match your system's configured

user directory location, e.g. "C:/WinNT/profiles/*/My Documents/My Website"

or whichever, as appropriate.

#
#<Directory "C:/Documents and Settings/*/My Documents/My Website">

AllowOverride FileInfo AuthConfig Limit

Options MultiViews Indexes SymLinksIfOwnerMatch IncludesNoExec

<Limit GET POST OPTIONS PROPFIND>

Order allow,deny

Allow from all

</Limit>

<LimitExcept GET POST OPTIONS PROPFIND>

Order deny,allow

Deny from all

</LimitExcept>

#</Directory>

DirectoryIndex: sets the file that Apache will serve if a directory

is requested.

The index.html.var file (a type-map) is used to deliver content-

negotiated documents. The MultiViews Option can be used for the

same purpose, but it is much slower.

#
DirectoryIndex index.html index.html.var

AccessFileName: The name of the file to look for in each directory

for additional configuration directives. See also the AllowOverride

directive.

#
AccessFileName .htaccess

The following lines prevent .htaccess and .htpasswd files from being

viewed by Web clients.

#
<Files ~ "^.ht">
Order allow,deny
Deny from all
</Files>

TypesConfig describes where the mime.types file (or equivalent) is

to be found.

#
TypesConfig conf/mime.types

DefaultType is the default MIME type the server will use for a document

if it cannot otherwise determine one, such as from filename extensions.

If your server contains mostly text or HTML documents, "text/plain" is

a good value. If most of your content is binary, such as applications

or images, you may want to use "application/octet-stream" instead to

keep browsers from trying to display binary files as though they are

text.

#
DefaultType text/plain

The mod_mime_magic module allows the server to use various hints from the

contents of the file itself to determine its type. The MIMEMagicFile

directive tells the module where the hint definitions are located.

#
<IfModule mod_mime_magic.c>
MIMEMagicFile conf/magic
</IfModule>

ErrorLog logs/error.log

LogLevel warn

The following directives define some format nicknames for use with

a CustomLog directive (see below).

#
LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\"" combined
LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b" common
LogFormat "%{Referer}i -> %U" referer
LogFormat "%{User-agent}i" agent

You need to enable mod_logio.c to use %I and %O

#LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\" %I %O" combinedio

CustomLog logs/access.log common

If you prefer a single logfile with access, agent, and referer information

(Combined Logfile Format) you can use the following directive.

#
#CustomLog logs/access.log combined

ServerTokens Full

Optionally add a line containing the server version and virtual host

name to server-generated pages (internal error documents, FTP directory

listings, mod_status and mod_info output etc., but not CGI generated

documents or custom error documents).

Set to "EMail" to also include a mailto: link to the ServerAdmin.

Set to one of: On | Off | EMail

#
ServerSignature On

Aliases: Add here as many aliases as you need (with no limit). The format is

Alias fakename realname

Note that if you include a trailing / on fakename then the server will

require it to be present in the URL. So "/icons" isn't aliased in this

example, only "/icons/". If the fakename is slash-terminated, then the

realname must also be slash terminated, and if the fakename omits the

trailing slash, the realname must also omit it.

We include the /icons/ alias for FancyIndexed directory listings. If you

do not use FancyIndexing, you may comment this out.

#
Alias /icons/ "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/icons/"

<Directory "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/icons">
Options Indexes MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

This should be changed to the ServerRoot/manual/. The alias provides

the manual, even if you choose to move your DocumentRoot. You may comment

this out if you do not care for the documentation.

#
AliasMatch ^{/manual(?:/(?:de|en|es|fr|ja|ko|ru))?(/.*)?$} "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/manual$1"

<Directory "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/manual">

<Files *.html>

RedirectMatch 301 ^/manual(?:/(de|en|es|fr|ja|ko|ru)){2,}(/.*)?$ /manual/$1$2

</Directory>

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/cgi-bin/"

"C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/cgi-bin" should be changed to whatever your ScriptAliased

CGI directory exists, if you have that configured.

#
<Directory "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/cgi-bin">
AllowOverride None
Options None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

Just list the languages in decreasing order of preference. We have

more or less alphabetized them here. You probably want to change this.

Ok,

remove the line
ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/"
and restart apache. Then request the info page again and post the output.

Hint: You can attach files to your posts so you don't need to post the contents of big files directly.

Hey it works!

Now where's the resolved switch now then?
