Incidentally, the closing remarks regarding decaf caused me to spit a mouthful of regular coffee onto my keyboard as I laughed (and subsequently choked a bit). Alas, the true definition of irony.

hmmmmmmm ... apparently, it's not as simple as i thought. i'm on a test, fresh install of fedora 13 beta, i've installed apache 2 and started it, i've done a # yum install php and i can see: # rpm -qa "*php*" php-5.3.2-1.fc13.x86_64 php-cli-5.3.2-1.fc13.x86_64 php-common-5.3.2-1.fc13.x86_64 # i created /var/www/html/phpinfo.php which, unsurprisingly, simply runs phpinfo(), i've checked that there is a /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf file, i've verified that there is a shared object /usr/lib64/httpd/modules/libphp5.so ... and yet, when i browse to localhost's phpinfo.php, i see only (verbatim): <?php phpinfo(); ?> "httpd -M" verifies that, yes, php5_module is loaded. so, again, what have i done stupidly? and even if it's a trivial solution, i'm going to verify that a fresh install of fedora 13 with both httpd and php doesn't support php, which is just weird.

*sigh*. never mind, just restarting apache seemed to do it. maybe i'll just start my weekend now. rday
