What's the difference between mod_php4, mod_php, and php?

Am 15. Sep, 2002 schwätzte Kevin Brown so:

OK, how that we know that the php package provides what you need, let's see
if you've got the parts.

Send us the results of these two commands:

locate libphp4.so
grep -i php /etc/apache/*.conf


Someone please correct those for Red Hat if they should be different.

Mark, rather than /etc/apache it might be /etc/httpd and there might be an
extra conf in that path, e.g. /etc/httpd/*.conf,
/etc/apache/conf/*.conf or /etc/httpd/conf/*.conf

> In your web root folder (most likely /var/www/html for RH7.3)
> vi index.php
> <? phpinfo() ?>

An easier way is to use echo in this case. Make sure the file doesn't exist
via ls.

ls -l /var/www/html/info.php
echo '<? phpinfo() ?>' > /var/www/html/info.php

Now try to open the file with a web browser on that machine.
