I think that somewhere you have redundant 'LoadModule' directives for php5_module. One of them is in /etc/apache2/mods-available/php5.load. The other is bogus, and should be removed. Do a grep in your apache config files to find it. Note : Trying to load the module twice won't really hurt anything, but for sanity's sake it's still better to remove it. > Everything appears to be configured correctly, but attemping to open > any php file within Firefox (on the server itself) just asks if I want > to open it and with what app or if I want to save it. Opening the > file in Nautilus opens the file as a text file. That probably means that Apache isn't sending the right MIME-type, and is defaulting to 'binary' or something. Your browser thinks it can't display the content, so it offers to let you save it somewhere. Try saving the file, and then opening it with a text-editor. Do you see PHP source code, or the output of the source code? That will tell you whether the PHP module is actually operating on your code or not. I think this can be fixed by making sure that you have an 'AddType' directive for .php. There's one provided by /etc/apache2/mods-available/php5.conf. Are you sure the correct configuration files are enabled? What is the output of this command : 'ls -l /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/ | grep php' /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php5.conf should be a symlink to /etc/apache2/mods-available/php5.conf /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php5.load should be a symlink to /etc/apache2/mods-available/php5.load The contents of the files in /etc/apache2/mods-available should be : :::::::::::::: php5.conf :::::::::::::: AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml .php3 AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps :::::::::::::: php5.load :::::::::::::: LoadModule php5_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp5.so Also, check that mod_mime is enabled. Check that /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/mime.load exists. It almost certainly is, or you'd get 'unknown directive' warnings every time your config files used AddType, but it's worth verifying. --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change you mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
