Hi,
I run Apache 1.3.24 with PHP 4.21 (CGI only) on Windows 2000 Professional, and I also run the same on Red Hat Linux 7.3. Everything was working just fine on my Windows machine until I decided to reformat my hard drive and reinstall everything to fix a corrupted system registry.
I backed up all of the files I wanted to keep, and restored them with the built in backup utility in Win2k, and of course reinstalled Apache and PHP, but now there appears to be some problem that I cannot ascertain that is preventing my php files from working properly.
I had been using a simple guestbook that writes entries into plain flat files, rather than a database. If I open the guestbook.php file, and then click on the view or sign options, nothing happens at all, the page remains the same, and I am not given the entries, or the sign form. You can see what the problem is by going to http://linuxdaves.3utilities.com/guestbook.php
I thought perhaps this may lie within the permissions on the directories and files, so looked at the permissions, and it seems as though the permissions are okay. Maybe there is something that I'm leaving out of the httpd.conf file? I did notice that the windows version does not have a default user and group as does the Linux version, and like a dummy, that was one file that I didn't backup!
Any ideas what could be the problem?
Thanks
