Re: CGI and Apache install!

David, Here's what I use and it works just fine: # FOR PHP CGI ./configure --with-gd=/usr/local/src/gd-1.8.4 --with-ttf=/usr/local/src/freetype-1.3.1 --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local/src/jpeg-6b --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --enable-ftp --with-pdflib=/usr/local/src/pdflib-4.01 --with-zlib-dir=/usr/local/src/zlib --with-png-dir=/usr/local/src/libpng --with-xpm-dir=/usr/X11R6 # FOR APACHE ./configure \ "--prefix=/usr/local/apache" \ "--enable-module=so" \ To use the CGI, I edit the httpd.conf. Search for cgi, and look for the entry below. Delete or rem out the line that says Options None, and change it to Options ExecCGI: <Directory "/usr/local/apache/cgi-bin"> AllowOverride None # Options None Options ExecCGI Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> Then go into /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin and create two files: testphp and info.php . In testphp write: #!/bin/sh /usr/local/bin/php info.php In info.php write: <?php phpinfo(); ?> Make sure that testphp is chmod'd to 755. Make sure that your httpd.conf is set up correctly, and then go to the bin directory for apachectl. Type ./apachectl configtest . If it says ok, then type ./apachectl start . If you point your browser to http://localhost/cgi-bin/testphp you should get a screen that shows the output for phpinfo() .
