RE: [PHP] RPM Install #6 still doesn't work

Under RedHat 7.1, if you installed apache and php from the RPMs, you should not have to change anything, other than maybe telling it to serve up index.php pages. The thing about MySQL from the RPM under that distro is that the server is not started by default... if you haven't already, use 'chkconfig --list' to confirm that it is actually running (I set it to run in levels 345). Later today, if you are still having problems, we can look into it more => Ben -----Original Message----- From: Gaylen Fraley [mailto:gfraley5@earthlink.net] Sent: Saturday, July 14, 2001 3:07 PM To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] RPM Install #6 still doesn't work Ok. I've been in this industry for 32 years. I've loved O/S2, hated windoz and been intrigued with *nix. So, I have a successful web site and server under windoz/php/mysql and I decide to venture into RedHat Linux because I have heard some great things about it. I get 7.0 and install it, virgin. Apache and PHP work, but I was never able to get MySQL working, except from a command line. So, after abut 17 hours of frustration, I get 7.1 . Apache is the only thing that works. I was able to get PHP working when I did an install from scratch (tarball). But, it seems as if the RPM should work. I still could not get MySQL working working. It consistently gives an error 2002 / socket problem. Right now I have a virgin Apache and PHP4 and MySwl install from the RPM (7.1) and php will not work. As far as I can tell, I have modified my httpd.config in all the right places. Please, could someone who has a working install from the 7.1 RPM package, please post their httpd.conf lines that pertain to getting php to work? Also, if their is a library that I need to move around, please advise that too. Thanks. The MySQL problem would be a nice caveat if someone knows how to fix that too :) Regards, -- Gaylen gfraley5@earthlink.net -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net
