Hi Kelvyn,
php support for apache comes from the mod_php module. I don't know
mandrake, but I think it uses rpms, so...
at a shell prompt, try
rpm -qa | grep php
to see if it is available.

Going to localhost it shows php4.3.4 installed, its now just mysql that I'm
concerned about.
I'm just glad I'm at last finding this working with *nix that much easier
for some reason. Although problems will start I should imagine

Andy, did you install:
MYSQL-client,
and MYSQL-common,
and php-mysql-4.3.4-1mdk
to get mysql up and running with php support ??
Or dont I need php-mysql-4.3.4-1mdk
My install on windows was much easier than this !
Give me your address and I'll drop the book off tomorrow sometime (12-1pm)

On windows you have an htdocs folder which is where you place your files to
be served up by apache.
So which folder is it here:
var/www
var/www/html
var/www/web
I'm wanting to test out ?php phpinfo ?
Thanks
Regards Kelvyn.
Is there a simple way to check if my cdrom is reading my cd's.
I cant get over this, the problems just keep on coming.
Regards Kelvyn
for those others of us following the thread, what was the answer?

Answering from an RH9/FC4 background
mount /dev/cdrom
cd /mnt
cd cdrom
ls
that backwards
cd /
umount /dev/cdrom
eject

lets try this a different way:
how can I find the path to my cdrom ??
I have tried several suggestions from previous posts although I must admit
to not understanding what the - is actually meant to be in (instructions
from Ross Drummond):
/dev/hdc - ide/host0/bus1/target0/lun0/cd
I get. no
MAndrake cant work the same as RH then... thats a little suprising,
assumed it'd work...
Try
man mount (dont laugh, it's a legit command...)
Tell me what that does...

Thought you meant:
man mount/dev/cdrom
which did nothing.
man mount brings up everything on mount.
Gives a discription of file tree on unix systems etc,etc
Come to think of it, Just type
mount
and it should, if my guess is right do one of two things...
No such file or directory (this may mean the command MOUNT is missing)
or
/dev/blaa... (spew a whole heap of devices at you, as a list of all
mountable (mounted) drives it sees...)
lets try
Motivated if your using Mandrake try the following.
via a terminal screen / window type
cd ../../.. (to get ya to root (or as many ../ as needed)
from / (root) enter the next command
cd /mnt
do a ls to see the directories available
should see all mount point there (including cdrom)
stick a
OK, so maybe...
mount /dev/hdc
might have better results
hda - Primary Master
hdb - Primary Slave
hdc - Secondary Master (assuming this is your CDRom, here...if it's not,
you can adjust the above command to suit?)
hdd - Secondary Slave
Thought you meant:
man mount/dev/cdrom
which did

errr yeah so how are you running at all if there is no mount
Not sure how much you need, and its a 12 ft walk from one comp to the other,
but heres the guts, I'll post all of it if you need it (thanks for your
help)

then a bunch of :

mount /dev/hdc
This only works if /dev/hdc is in the file /etc/fstab. If there is an
entry in /etc/fstab that maps /dev/hdc to a mount point (for
example /mnt/cdrom) then you can either mount /dev/hdc or
mount /mnt/cdrom.

man is paged through your pager which is usually less. Hit q to exit.

You will have to excuse me if I'm slow on this.
Again I dont know how much detail you need:

then
Resume Machine: resuming from hda5
then theres a mention of hda6
dmesg|grep -i cd
gives:

I am logged in as root (that ok ?).
So far nothing suggested has worked. By that I mean I still cant get to, or
use my cdrom.

OK, you say it's on a separate cable, then it's almost certainly either
/dev/hdc or /dev/hdd. So try, logged in as root in a bash session...
mount -t iso9660 -o ro /dev/hdc /mnt
mount -t iso9660 -o ro /dev/hdd /mnt

Can you show the result? If the cd is working, and connected on the

Here is a trick;
Type the following command;
ls -l /dev/cd*[1]
note the output
On my machine I have listed /dev/cdrom0 and /dev/cdrom1
Issue the following command;
eject /dev/cdromwhatever
The cdrom tray of one of your cdrom drives should open. You will now be able

I actually think the cd drive is probably fucked as dmesg doesn't seem
to acknowledge its existence.

I installed another cd drive and still the same thing.
I then took the cable from my hd with the mandrake install and connected it
to the second hd, which I have never used, so I was guessing it was empty.
Then I inserted a boot disk (floppy) for mandrake 10, this then comes up
with a pop up box
ls -l /dev/cd*[1]
comes up with 'no such file or directory'
Correction
ls -l /dev/cd*
comes back with:
ls: invalid option
without the space
ls-l /dev/cd*
No such file or directory
And just to cover my butt I tried:

It's not necessary to log in as root. Of course you have to learn how
to accomplish all these things while logged on as a normal user.
For the command line stuff, I know a couple of options. Start up a
normal shell prompt and type su, you will be asked for your root
password. Alternatively
Its been some time since I played with my Mandrake box due to other
obligations, so I have forgotten almost everything.
I originally installed Mandrake 10.1 and at time of installation selected to
install apache, mysql and I'm not sure if there was an option to install
php.
At this point I
Log in to a shell as root and run the following command;
service httpd status
You should get a response like 'Apache is running'. If not run the following
command to to start Apache;
service httpd start
Once Apache starts open your web browser of choice and go to this URL;
http://127.0.0.1
