Install Configuration Problem

My server is working with me to get my site back and running. We recently upgraded to PHP Version 4.2.3 and Apache Version 1.3.28 (Unix) and now are having the following problems. It seems to be somewhere in the server settings... I am having the following probs: <files index> ForceType application/x-httpd-php </files> gets this error: error: file has no execute permission: (this one is real importent to my site and yes there is a file index no extension in this directory) php_values cannot be set from the htaccess or at runtime with ini_set receive this error Invalid command 'php_flag', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration and Invalid command 'php_value', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration Perhaps a mod_ is missing or a wrong path, we have been working on this for a couple days. It to the hair pulling point, help! Thanks for any help Scott
