RE: [PHP-INSTALL] Issues with Redhat 8.0

Consider that your DocumentRoot under Apache 2.0.4 is set to "/var/www/html". Please check under the option for DirectoryIndex in httpd.conf. This should be towards the end of the httpd.conf file. I am assuming that you will have options such as index.html, index.php.. Please create a small index.html file. This does not have to be anything complex - just a simple "Hello World" tag will suit fine. The reason for this is that we need to make sure that Apache works file. To check this please type ps -ax | grep httpd and see if you get multiple processes. --I am sure that you have done this but here goes. What happens when you type in http://localhost. If you get the browser to display the "Hello World" tag then that means that Apache is properly configured. Once you have done that please type in http://localhost/phpinfo.php and this should reflect the php configuration. I see from earlier emails that you have already configured the httpd.conf file for parsing php files.. Good luck.. Hari -----Original Message----- From: Christopher M.

I've since removed the LoadModule php4 and have moved the "phpinfo.php" test script to my document root, but I still have no luck with it. When I go to to page, it simply loads a blank screen. I've tried building the latest flavor of PHP, but it has a ton of dependancies, and I'd rather get what I have up and running before I go off an install another version of PHP. Any other ideas?
