Linux Install
« on: September 14, 2005, 10:06:16 pm »
Hey I downloaded the cpg1.3.4 and copied it to my /var/www file. I opened up synaptic and installed php4 plus a few other things but when I tried to run install.php it just asks me to open it with a text editor. I read that if it does this then php isnt installed. Please help.

bit of info:

OS: Debian Sarge 3.1
Kernel: 2.6.8
PHP: 4.3.10-16
CPG: 1.3.4

Please use Google to find server setup instructions.  None of us are experts in setting up servers.

I dont suppose that's really an issue with servers but rather something with my computer and PHP not being recognized

You can't just install php - you have to run a webserver (like Apache) that will parse PHP and output the HTML to your browser.

what distro of linux are you running? good chances you have apache and php on your machine already.
open bash, superuser, then type httpd to start apache. to check its working, open konqueror, type localhost in your address bar, press enter and let us know what you see then. If its a 404, you've got a hill to climb, if it says welcome to apache on localhost etc. you're on ez street.
