No PHP Parsing

[frankwth]

Hallo,

I just d/l the latest trunk 20071104 and installed on Debian Etch (netinst). All packages have been installed and the installation script went through w/o problems. When calling my domain I am offered to save a file to disk. Looks like *.php files are not recognized. php -v shows "PHP 5.2.0-8+etch7 (cli)". I have tried to put "AddType application/x-httpd-php .php" into a .htaccess in the gui directory and in the <directory>-entries in "/etc/apache2/sites-available/00_master.conf". No success.

Am I missing something here. The only entries I can see in error.log are:

Code:

[Mon Nov 05 00:31:37 2007] [notice] caught SIGTERM, shutting down
[Mon Nov 05 00:31:39 2007] [notice] suEXEC mechanism enabled (wrapper: /usr/lib/apache2/suexec)
[Mon Nov 05 00:31:39 2007] [notice] Apache/2.2.3 (Debian) configured -- resuming normal operations

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

have you installed libapache2-mod-fastcgi ?

Yes, all according to the debian-etch package list in the doc directory (incl. the duplicate 'postgrey' )

Kind regards

SORRY, I just see that aptitude is giving me "No candidate version found for libapache2-mod-fastcgi". So, obviously it is not. I think I have to do some research now. Or, do you have a quick idea.

make sure you add the 'non-free' section in your /etc/apt/sources.list

[frankwth]

Thank you for your help,

found it on google already. After changing the sources.list I got it installed and forced a reload of apache2. To be sure I checked all other packages. Looks like this was the only one on non-free.

But, the problem is still the same. Should I repeat the install? "a2enmod fastcgi" shows me, that the module is enabled.

Thanks again for your help

[frankwth]

FYI,

as I used a virtual machine anyway, I did a new installation after making sure to include the non-free sources and installing "libapache2-mod-fastcgi". I did not do a deep research on how to fix the problem if this module is missing BEFORE the installation. Maybe this should be mentioned in the INSTALL-doc to avoid problems for others in the future.

The system is running now and I will start testing tomorrow.

Thanks again for the quick help here in the forum.

If you didn't have fastcgi installed at setup time (ispcp-setup) you might need to hack around the config files.
This is because ispcp-setup takes the original fastcgi.load and creates a copy called fastcgi_ispcp.conf (adding an <IfModule...) and then disables fastcgi and enables fastcgi_ispcp

[joximu]

But frankwth is right: would be nice if the setup programm says something like:

"hey you idiot, you didn't install all packages..."
(or better :-)

it already checks for the perl modules, but it doesn't check for the rest
