SinisterSlay Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 I'm having a problem with PHP files in general, I can't get them to run. My server is http://trevorsarchives.selfip.net/fcw and I can't even run the install. It's mys erver btw, its apache, I have isntalled the PHP support. Its Ubuntu Linux on it. No matter what system I use, it tries to "download" the PHP file, instead of running it, I think I have one system right now that will actually try to run the file, and not just download it. That system recently caught a terriable virus and died a horriable death. So how do I make my browsers actually run PHP files rather than downloading them, or is the server the problem, and if so, how do I solve it?

AtomicNetwork Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Here is something for you to check, try adding index.php to the end of the url, or try another php file directly. The reason for this is that, apache may not be configured correctly to accept .php files as a directory index. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odisey Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 I've recently installed PHP in the Ubuntu environment, and phpmyadmin. Both installed flawlessly - Ubuntu is good about snaptic packages and installs. There was some configuring for the php though. I have a list of things I did, I am not sure that will help you though. If you are interested, let me know and I will post it. First though ... I did not use the CLI.... I installed through the desktop version of the server admin.
