This bug has been fixed in CVS. In case this was a PHP problem, snapshots of the sources are packaged every three hours; this change will be in the next snapshot. You can grab the snapshot at http://snaps.php.net/. In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up soon at http://www.php.net/manual/. In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites in short time. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better. The final descision was made: The php cgi binary is /php4/php.exe. This one is intended to be used with webservers. /php4/cli/php-cli.exe is the CLI Version of php intended to use for commandline scripting.

I am on the way to update the docs. They will show up soon on the website. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-08 15:29:14] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I tried installing 4.3.0RC2 in CGI mode for Apache, following the documentation at http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.commandline.php Result: one hour wasted. Reason: the page does not contain any hint as to what directives need to be added to the httpd.conf to enable processing of *.php files by the interpreter. There is a user-provided docnote which handles this, suggesting to use something like this: AddType application/x-httpd-php .php4 ScriptAlias /php4/ "/home/king/php-4.1.2/" Action application/x-httpd-php /php4/php Unfortunately, this is dangerously outdated: you must use /php4/php-cgi, not /php4/php. Failing to do so results in the very difficult to debug "Premature end of script headers" message in server's error log. That "php-cgi" thing is mentioned NOWHERE on the CGI installation page - I only managed to solve it through advice on IRC. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=20888&edit=1 -- PHP Documentation Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
