php4-cli or mod_php4

[Thomas S. Crum - AAA Web Solution, Inc.]

By installing php4-extensions it will auto to using mod_php with apache. I
have never had a lick of trouble with apache 1.3 and the above mentioned
set-up. Although, as the message states many have complained of trouble with
2.

I recommend installing mysql 1st, apache 1.3 2nd, then the php4-extensions.

Best,

Thomas S. Crum

Hi Cristi,

Install php4-extensions; and then follow these instructions, which are
found in /usr/ports/lang/php4/pkg-message.mod:

***************************************************************

Make sure index.php is part of your DirectoryIndex.

You should add the following to your Apache configuration file:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

***************************************************************

You're next big question may be whether to use apache 1.3 or apache 2,
as I keep seeing references on the internet about people having
problems with php and apache 2.

Best regards,

Andrew Gould
