Robin, I had the same problem with my latest PHP install on Apache 2.
I had to add this line to my httpd.conf:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
I had a custom compiled PHP 5.0.2, which added the LoadModule line,
but not the AddType. You may also want to include index.php in your
DirectoryIndex. Let me know if this works for you.

I guess the question is - how to make a file that does not end in .php or
have any extension, be understood as a php file?

What exactly does your script end in?
I think you can make up your own extension and add it as well just tell
apache what to use when it sees it. I.E.
AddType application/x-httpd-php .fred
I can't guarantee that's true but I think you can.

Now I see your problem. If it were merely a different extension, that
wouldn't be a problem. You need to be able to run a file with *no*
extension through the PHP parser, which seems a bit more difficult.
Let me see what I can figure out.
What version of GForge are you running? The current one appears to be
'normal', i.e. with extensions on the files.

As far as I'm aware, that should work, it has for me in the past, as it
has evidewntally worked for you as well.
I often use another way of doing that same sort of thing that might be a
valid option for you though:
If you change the filename to end in php (projects.php, or whatever) ,
then Alias it to a name that doesn't end in .php you'll achieve the same
effect:
Alias /projects "/full/path/to/porojects/files/projects.php"
That has worked for me, though you will still need to set
AcceptPathInfo, if it isn't already.

The prize goes to Mark Charette of [EMAIL PROTECTED] for reading the
apache manual in more detail than I.
After Reading
http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/core.html#forcetype
Then adding:
ForceType application/x-httpd-php
Things work great.

ForceType directive.
I was thinking the same thing, but after doing some reading it seems
Apache 2 uses a different method now (setinputfilter/setoutputfilter).
Just acknowledging my mistake and passing this along for others, too. :)
Happy new year.

I looked it up before posting ...
According to the 2.0.xx online docs, ForceType should work just fine:

Subject: [PHP] Apache 2.0.52 / PHP 4.3.10 Integration Question...
Hi.
I am trying to get Apache 2.0.52 / PHP 4.3.10 working with some scripts I
am using.
I have a file named /www/projects which is a php script.
When I type the url: www.site/projects/variable
I want variable passed to the script "projects"
I have the the http.conf set up as:
<Files projects>
SetInputFilter PHP
SetOutputFilter PHP
AcceptPathInfo On
</Files>
Which used to work with apache 2.0.40 and php 4.2.3 - but what happens now,
is I actually get passed the php script back as text to the browser.
Any thoughts? I poked around on google, and saw at
http://dan.drydog.com/apache2php.html
"However, SetOutputFilter / SetInputFilter no longer works for me. It used
to work with an earlier PHP 4.x or Apache 2 version, but not with Apache
2.0.47/PHP 4.3.3. I understand this (PHP as an Apache 2 filter) is
experimental, so I don't use it anymore"
I tried things like:
AddType text/html php
But I keep getting the same thing in my browser:
<?php
/**
* Projects Redirector
*
---snip---
?>
Any thoughts? Thanks in advanced.

Yes... approach it differently. Try the following:
In httpd.conf or your .htaccess, have:
<Files projects>
ForceType application/x-httpd-php
</Files>
Then, in your projects file, use the PATH_INFO key from $_SERVER to
access variables passed as part of the 'url' (anything following a slash
trailing the word 'projects' in the url):
$path_info = $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'];
$path_info = substr($path_info, 1); // Trim off first slash
$args = expode('/', $path_info);
$variable = $args[0];

That's a valid question. I am not a dba. In fact I'm not even a real
designer. I'm only a hack technician who got tired of arguing with the IT
department one day and decided to make my own tools to use. I chose php
based off the community of php. I tried a couple other languages and a few
scripting languages. Every attempt to ask for help came with the high price
of getting flamed. In Google groups you can see such an encounter by
searching on "grep once awk twice or more".
I load about 3 tables from a database called the LERG. It's updated daily. I
currently manually load these tables into my scratch database. I don't have
to worry about cycles because my app runs on the server in our department
which IT does not have access to. So we can query that database all day.
Finally the DataWarehouse team gave us access to update our local database
via read-only. So I am not abandoning the mysql database just updating it
from live data.
Would you have a link to the client downloads at OTN? I have been
downloading the wrong things apparently.
Thanks,

I sent you that link earlier. There's no 'client library only' download
that I know of. The client libraries are included with the actual db
software. Unless things have changed since I last set up a box (Oracle
8 client), you'll need to either a) download the whole CD, or b) get the
installation CD's from your DBA's.

I want to validate someones age. How do I do this in

Numbers are pretty easy. You could just do:
$age = (int)$_POST['age'];
if($age > 9) do_something();
else do_something_else();
Using ereg doesn't make much sense in this case.

The ereg function doesn't have the capability to test the age of the
person viewing your page. You have to depend on them to input their
age in some way.
Your answer depends on how your age is submitted. Assuming it is
submited as $_POST['age'], you could perhaps use ereg("0*[7-9]$",
$_POST['age']) - that might work but I haven't used ereg - ever, I
perfer to use the faster PCRE regex functions, such as
preg_match("/^0*[7-9]$/", $_POST['age']); which will match any amount
of zeros, followed by anything between 7 and 9, ie 8,
0000000000000000008, or 08
Having all that said, I wouldn't use reges for smething like this.

I used response.redirect in asp to avoid form re-submit, so I can have form
handling functions and other related functions on the same file.
new_customer_form.php :
< form action="form_results.php" >
Customer fills form and hits submit button.
form_results.php :
function validate_form_data(){
if true show_results();
}
function show_results() {...}
Now customer is on results page in show_results().
If he hits the Refresh button or Back then Forward buttons in he will be
prompt to resubmit the form data or cancel.
If I add header("Location: form_results.php") inside function
validate_form_data() instead of calling function show_results() I can avoid
this behaviour.
I don't know if this is the right procedure, i am learning as I develop.
This was a workaround for shopping cart and customer area form handling form
handling code. Probably I'm doing it all wrong :)
And Robby thanks for the ob_start() tip!
I apologise for my bad English writing.

Yeah, sure. You just can't have any output before you redirect with a
Location header (unless you use output buffering as a workaround).
This is basic HTTP and ASP has to play by the same rules. If you can
have output before Response.Redirect, then ASP is just doing the
buffering for you before it sends a Location header.

Yeah, this is a good method for a lot of form processing. It's as simple
as having the processing/validating in one area and the form/error
display in another. Once the form is accepted/rejected, you just
header() redirect to the form or error page. Too easy and it prevents a
lot of confusion for your users.
And Robby thanks for the ob_start() tip!
This is a workaround, really. Your code should be structured so that you
can decide if you need to perform a redirect before any output is sent
to the browser. If you're going to send them to another page, why would
you have any output anyhow? Using templates sometimes forces you to do
this, as you perform all of your business logic / PHP code before hand
and then display the appropriate templates. If you need to send the user
to another page, it's easy to do so at any point before your templates
are shown.

Yes you are right, that is what I am doing now, taking all validation /
verification functions that do not output html to top, after session
handling. This is my first php application as I am migrating from asp and
trying to "mirror" my application in php. I have separate php files to
handle different "areas" of the site and like you say I use header+footer
sort of template.
Thanks. Happy New Year!

I believe that directory is compiled into your php.exe and php4ts.dll (?)
file -- and it cannot be changed from any external setting/action on your
part, unless you want to re-compile.
If Windows had real symbolic links instead of stupid "shortcuts" I'd say
to just put a link in c:\php4...
Actually, I guess a short-cut in c:\php4 will "work" in that when you use
Windoze to open it, it will open the c:\winnt\php.ini instead. It will
just be useless to every program other than Windows.

If you got other Modules to load from directory X, and the files you want
to load are in directory X, then moving them to directory Y is *not* gonna
help.
There must be something wrong with the DLL files themselves. Check your
IIS error log (assuming such a thing exists) for more info.

I don't know if it's STILL true (or ever was) that readfile() would suck
the whole file into RAM before spitting it out... Seems real unlikely,
but...
At any rate, you can simply do:
$file = 'whatever.mb';
$fp = @fopen($file, 'r') or trigger_error("Could not read $file",
E_USER_ERROR);
while (!feof($fp)){

I'd go with Richards Basic idea, but if you're outputting a 100Mb file
I'd use a hell of a lot bigger chunks than 4K. With the syscall and
loop overhead, i'd go with at least half a megabyte, or more likely
2Mb depending on your amount of memory.
To do this you'd change Richards
echo fread($fp, 4096); //4K chunks
to
echo fread($fp, 2048000); // ~2Mb chunks (actually 2000KB but couldn't
be bothered counting, and 2Mb is an arbitory figure anyway)
Just make sure you don't have output buffering on.

Years ago, after suffering through the flame wars on this list every few
days from posts like this, I threw up a comparison application.
You may, or may not, find the data useful. I have no idea if anybody has
bothered to add/rate anything in this in all this time. It was a
one-night hack to work out my frustration with posts like this. :-)

Has anyone had any problems installing phpMyAdmin with the above
configuration? I get an error about the mySql client and
authentication methods? MySQL Error: 1251 : Client does not support
authentication protocol requested by server
Please assist
Happy New Year

I am trying to turn on apache_child_terminate with PHP V4.3.10 / Apache 2.0.52
When I do a phpinfo(); it returns a:
apache2handler with only three Directives:
- engine
- last_modified
- xbithack
When I look at others with apache 1.3, it lists, child_terminate, which I
need to be able to set.
Does this function only work with Apache 1.3?
Thanks
-Robin
