PHP4 - NT 4 - Apache

[Anon]

I'm having a heck of a time getting things up and running in the afore mentioned configuration. Here are the configurations and the error I am getting:

Install:
php-4.0.1pl2 installed to d:\php3
apache installed to d:\host\apache

php.ini:
extension_dir = "d:\php3\"

httpd.conf:
ScriptAlias /php3/ "/php3/"
AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php3
AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .phtml
Action application/x-httpd-php3 "\php3\php.exe"

Error:
[Wed Jul 26 17:29:51 2000] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: d:/host/apache/htdocs/php3/php.exe/Mike.php3

I've tried to use absolute paths for
the path entries, but whenever I do I
get an invalid URI error.

Help appreciated,

Mike

well...at first glance at this info, I would say it's because your .exe is in d:\php3\, but httpd.conf is looking in d:\host\apache\htdocs\php3 for it. Either move the .exe to this dir, or tell httpd.conf where it really is...
hope it helps

I have Apache 1.3.12 and PHP 4.0.1pl2 installed in C:\PHP and it's working.

In my httpd.conf I have the following :

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/"
Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php.exe"

The difference between the two is that Christian has a script alias pointing to c:\php

Mike--add ScriptAlias /php/ "d:/php3/" to httpd.conf and see what happens

Still No go: Here's the situation:

http.conf:
Changed Script alias to:

ScriptAlias /php/ "d:/php3/"

Action entry:
Action application/x-httpd-php3 "/php3/php.exe"

Types:
AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php3
AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .phtml

I try to access a simple php script
in my htdocs directory (htdocs/mike.php) which just does an echo statement and get
this error in the log file:

[Thu Jul 27 13:50:29 2000] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: d:/host/apache/htdocs/php3/php.exe/mike.php

Does anyone know why it is appending my whole
php executable path to my script instead of just appending my document root (htdocs?)

In my php.ini file here is my extension_dir
entry:

extension_dir = "D:\php3\"

If I can figure out why it thinks that my script is at:

d:/host/apache/htdocs/php3/php.exe/mike.php

instead of:

d:/host/apache/htdocs/mike.php

I should be home free.

Do you think putting things on the D drive
is hurting?

What its actually saying is parse /mike.php with d:/host/apache/htdocs/php3/php.exe
I don't know why it outputs it like that, but thats the logic of the preprocessor...
Here is the entirety of the PHP stuff in my httpd.conf; right or wrong, it works great. Note that I don't have a script alias entry for php.exe. However, I keep all of my php files (.exe, .dll, .ini, etc) in my cgi-bin. Why? It seemed right at the time.

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "C:/Apache/cgi-bin/"
AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php3
AddType application/x-httpd-php3-source .phps
AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .phtml
Action application/x-httpd-php3 "/cgi-bin/php.exe"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

Good luck

That did the trick.
Moved my php binaries into the cgi-bin
directory and everything came up roses.
Thanks for the input.

Well, using

ScriptAlias /php/ "d:/php3/"

will make the action entry:

Action application/x-httpd-php3 "/php/php.exe" , not "/php3/php.exe", because Apache has no alias for "/php3/" (unless you made one), but for "/php".

So it's :

ScriptAlias /php/ "d:/php3/"
Action application/x-httpd-php3 "/php/php.exe"

AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php3
AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .phtml

By the way, x-httpd-php3 is for PHP3, and x-httpd-php is for PHP4, ... I think.

Good luck.

I got it working, but that is a very
useful pieve of information. I was
unconcerned with the semantics of the
scriptalias entry, but now I understand
its intention and you are right that
is definitely what would have been
causing my problem.

Chalk one up for understanding first
what you cut and paste into your conf files
=)
