Dave,
Do you run PHP as CGI or as php_mod ?
If CGI, then you should place your PHP scripts in /cgi-bin/,
prepend '#!/usr/bin/php' or whatever, and make your
scripts executable. Also control your php.ini file.
If you run PHP as php_mod, then you must add the
following lines to your apache httpd.conf file :
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php .phtml
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php3
for whatever file extensions you need.
After this, check again your php.ini file.
I think it should be installed, I have it here on my system,
installed from standard cygwin. It doesn't run here, but
for other reasons, so I use the CGI, which I compiled
from scratch. I do not need the performance, only the
functionality.
Regards,
Jurgen

Subject: Apache/PHP installation puzzle
Classification:
Fellow Cygwinners!
Now I fully expect to be told to RTFM --- but here goes anyway!
I've installed Cygwin on a W2K workstation primarily for the purpose of
running
Postgres and for this it works admirably. All installations have worked
flawlessly.
Encouraged by the performance of Cygwin I decided that I would replace the
local Windows IIS 'Personal Web Server' with Apache +PHP. I started the
Setup
program, selected Apache and the PHP library and initiated the
installation.
The installation reported complete with no errors or warnings. I started
the
Apache server and accessing 'localhost/index.html' produced the desired
result -
Apache is up and running. I then wrote the approved php test script ( <?
phpinfo()?> ) and pointed the browser to 'localhost/tester.php'. No PHP!!
I
checked the /etc/postinstall directory and the presence of
apache-php-sh.done
rather indicates that installation was OK. To check I deleted this file,
re-
installed the PHP library alone and, again, installation appears OK with
no
errors. I checked in the setup logs - again, no errors. However, nowhere
on
the system is the a libphp4 of any description to be found and so I can't
see
how I can add the LoadModule line to the httpd.conf file.
I've spent a couple of hours Googling and searching the mail archives but
have
not seen this problem refered to anywhere else. I would appreciate a nudge
in
the right direction,
Regards,
Dave.
