Re: MIME types

The problem may be that the 'common' "httpd.conf" you put into place, does not take into account any other 'modules' or changes made to your Apache installation. That's why I always use the 'source' distribution and method of configuring and installation. You'd have total control over the configuration, as well as know what 'modules' you've built into the apache installation. If you can't get it to work, consider removing the RPM's for Apache/PHP/MySQL, etc, and I'll send you a copy of my 'webdocs' which will show you have to reinstall them using the source method. (which has always worked for my, and others who have requested them)... good luck... P.S.
