[Mapserver-users] Linux RedHat 9.0 php/mapscript installation

[Dylan Keon]

Alexander,

Did you copy /usr/local/php-4.3.2/sapi/cgi/php to your cgi-bin?  Or did 
you copy another php file to your cgi-bin?  Also make sure the php 
executable that came with RH9 isn't being called for some reason.

Do you have lines similar to these in your httpd.conf?...

     AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml
     Action application/x-httpd-php /cgi-bin/php

You might also try removing certain PHP ./configure options one by one, 
to see if you can pinpoint the problem.

I'm not familiar with --with-layout=RedHat (in your Apache config). 
Make sure that's not doing anything weird. :-)

HTH,
--Dylan
