I've tested again some varieties and I always get "PHP Fatal error:
Cannot get midgard module descriptor in Unknown on line 0" from the php
preparser.
As you said, the "normal" way to operate midgard is completely from the
db - without php code in the doc root. Here are the files again:
in usr/lib/apache: mod_midgard.so, midgard.so
in usr/lib/php/extensions: midgard-root.php
/etc/httpd/httpd.conf refers to /etc/httpd/midgard-data.conf.
midgard-conf contains:
## Uncomment these if you want to use filetemplates
# MidgardTemplate phpelements.xml
# AddType application/x-httpd-php-midgard .mgd
## Uncomment this for PHP3,
## MidgardRootFile "/usr/lib/php/extensions/midgard-root.php3"
## or this for PHP4
MidgardRootFile "/usr/lib/php/extensions/midgard-root.php
php.ini contains:
extension_dir = /usr/lib/apache
; MIDGARD
extension = midgard.so
This should direct php/apache to midgard.so, eh?. When I restart apache
all ist fine, at least during the loading process for httpd. I can also
connect with the browser to any html files. But any time I connect to
.php files, I get
[23-Apr-2001 14:52:15] PHP Fatal error: Cannot get midgard module
descriptor in Unknown on line 0
For ANY .php or .php3 file! Consequently, the php connect fails.
Meanwhile, I already have in httpd.conf:
---------------------------
#
# And for PHP 4.x, use:
#
<IfDefine PHP4>
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php3 .phtml .php4
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
</IfDefine>
---------------------------
If I IN-activate the "extension = midgard.so" entry from php.ini, all
my OTHER .php projects are functional again and there is no "Fatal
error" in the php parser log.

I have NO problem with my php setup itself. it works fine, as long as I
dont add "extension = midgard.so" into php.ini

OK, consequently I get no reply at all when entering
http://locutus.netzwissen.de:80/admin/. But that's clear as long as the
"midgard.so" is not loaded correctly. We should first work on this
problem.

OK, let us proceed with a standard setup and without filetemplates. I
would prefer getting everything from the DB.

You're right and I do believe its getting better. That's one reason for
these talks here... I only wanted to say that the install descriptions
still have some way to go ;-)
BTW: If the midgard connects to he midgard DB, where can I adjust the
connect data (login user, PW). Normally, I would have expected this to
be part of the midgard-root.php. I defined it during install but where
can I change this afterwards?
