Hello everybody.
I wish you can help me.
I installed the php4 module in Debian using 'apt-get' and when i call a php page the server shows me the page source code .
Any suggerence?
Thanks a lot.

Did you read the PHP manual section about installing PHP? you may need to tell your webserver that it should use php to parse "*.php" files.

http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.unix.php

Look at example 2.1, item 17

i am having the same problem although I did uncomment the code "<IfModule mod_php4.c>

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
</IfModule>" from my httpd.conf file. I killed and restarted httpd and have the php.ini file located in /usr/local/lib (after a cp and mv to rename it from "php.ini-dist"). When accessing the page only the source code shows up in the browser php is not processing it. What could I have done wrong??

thanks
brian
