Q: I have installed the APACHE module for Unix by step, but the source code of my PHP script is displayed in the browser, or the browser prompts me to save the file. Why?
A: This is because the PHP module does not work properly. Check the following three items:
Make sure that the running APACHE execution file is the one that you compiled successfully. Run the following command:
/Path/to/binary/httpd-l
If you do not see mod_php3.c in the list, you have not run a correct execution file.
Make sure that you have added the correct "Mime Type" to one of your. conf files. This should be like:
AddType application/x-httpd-php3. php3
Make sure that the above "AddType" is not in the OR block; otherwise, this AddType takes effect only in the current Virtualhost or Directory.
II,
Q: I have installed PHP as instructed, but my PHP still cannot work with IIS. why?
A: users who need to run PHP must have the right to run php.exe. The iisserver uses an anonymous account number created during installation. this account number is used to run php.exe. In addition, any authenticated users have the right to run php.exe.

Q: How to compile PHP with APACHE 1.3.X?
A: This is simple. you only need to follow the steps below:
-Obtain the latest APACHE distribution package from the APACHE site
-UNZIP/UNTAR file to a directory, such as/usr/local/src/apache-1.3.9
-Enter "./configure -- with-apache =/path/to/your/apache" to start the first PHP compilation.
-Execute "make", "make install" in sequence to create and copy the necessary files to the APACHE Directory.
-Go to the APACHE Directory and edit the Configuration file. Add "AddModule modules/php3/libphp3.a" to the end of the file"
Run "./Configure", "make"
Everything is done. you already have an APACHE execution file that can run PHP.
IV,
Q: It seems that there is a problem when I compile PHP and APACHE together. It always says that the httpd. h file cannot be found, but the file actually exists. Why?
A: You need to let the PHP configuration/installation script know the highest level directory of your APACHE source code, rather than the directory containing httpd. h files. That is to say, you should specify "-- with-apache =/path/to/apache/" instead of "-- with-apache =/path/to/apache/src ".
V,
Q: I have installed PHP with RPM, but APACHE cannot process PHP files. Why?
A: If you use RPM to correctly install PHP, you must add the following lines to the httpd. conf file:
# Extra Modules
AddModule mod_php.c
AddModule mod_php3.c
AddModule mod_perlc.
# Extra Modules
LoadModule php_module modules/mod_php.so
LoadModule php3_module modules/libphp3.so
LoadModule perl_module modules/libperl. so
In addition, add:
AddType application/x-httpd-php3. php3
To the global part of httpd. conf, or to the part where you need to provide PHP support.
VI,
Q: How can I use the MAIL function to send emails in WINDOWS?
A: PHP uses the SENDMAIL program to send mails in UNIX/LINUX. if SENDMAIL is not available in WINDOWS, you can use the SMTP protocol. the specific method is as follows: modify PHP. SMTP in the [mail function] of the INI file.
For example:
[Mail function]
SMTP = public.sta.net.cn; Win32 Only
VII,
Q: php + apache configuration in win9x
"Cannot determine local host name, use servername to set it manually"
If you have an IP address, add the following to httpd. conf:
ServerName http: // your IP address
Example: ServerName http: // 162.105.38.100
