PHP, httpd and mysql

TanyaMartin · 12-30-2005, 10:50 PM

I have one site that is on a friends server. I found out it has been down a few weeks (the site). PHP messed up on the machine, well from looking at it I think they tried to upgrade or something.

It looks like php is installed now, and I have check httpd it has

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

But when going to php websites. It prompts to download the file. What am I missing?

Also, does anyone have some good tutorials for working with mysql through ssh?

Thanks

No idea. Sorry.

Why not reformat the server, re-install and re-upload the websites?

Not my server. I'm not even sure who their host is...

Hi Tanya,

This may sound like a daft question (and probably is) but are you using IE or FF?

And if you're using FF, does it happen on IE?

*edit*
Sorry, I should have looked at the box a little closer

Anyway, does it happen in IE?

If it happens on both browsers, see if;

"AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .htm .html" is in the .htaccess file.

or try:

AddHandler php3-script .html - Try one or the other in the .htaccess file.

See what that does.

It happens in both. I think something is missing in httpd conf. I know the first one is there, so I will try the second one and see what happens.
