[Openinteract-help] mod_perl_solo setup disables php

From: Richard H. <ric...@gm...> - 2005-03-22 23:07:03

Hi all,

Using a mod_perl server (no proxy) with OI and when I enable the
Include /oi/website/httpd_modperl_solo.conf and restart the server
I lose php.

From the apache/conf/error_log file:
(using  Include /oi/website/httpd_modperl_solo.conf )

Apache/1.3.31 (Unix) mod_perl/1.29 configured -- resuming normal operations



(not using  Include /oi/website/httpd_modperl_solo.conf )

Apache/1.3.31 (Unix) mod_perl/1.29 PHP/4.3.8 configured -- resuming
normal operations


What's going on here?  


Thanks.
Richard

I've never seen this before. Does PHP actually not work after you've
brought in mod_perl functionality? (I'm not sure of the relationship
between being advertised in the server-info line and actually
working...)

The next thing to do is whittle it down to the simplest case. What if
you comment out the OI2 stuff (the PerlRequire and pointer to
Apache::OpenInteract2) and make a super-simple mod-perl handler. Does
the same result occur?

If so, I'd ping the mod_perl mailing list for help:

  http://perl.apache.org/maillist/modperl.html

PHP and mod_perl worked fine until I 
Include httpd_modperl_solo.conf

I found a solution but have run into another problem (see below).
The solution was to do this: ( load php after include )

apache/conf/httpd.conf:

Include /oi/website/conf/httpd_modperl_solo.conf

LoadModule php4_module        libexec/libphp4.so

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml .php3 .html .htm
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

lsof shows me that the php .so was loaded but php was not
working.

See above.

The other problem I see now is that if I go to "System Documentation" page
and click on "View OpenInteract Documentation" it wants to save the index.html
as a file  (it opens the save file as dialog box in my browser).  


Thanks.

This is where you're getting in to trouble.  "A man cannot serve two
masters".  You need to pick ".html" as either a PHP file or a mod_perl
file.  Choose wisely.  Of course, you can narrow your choice by
Directory or by Location, but you still need to choose.

Wait a minute....wife, boss, kids.....am I bucking the trend?

Thank you, that fixed this issue.

You know (I don't own this server), just trying to add some functionality to
it and that line looked suspect to me.  But before I did anything the server
was working fine.  Only until openinteract was added to the mix have I seen
any problems with .html  and it's only from the pages served from my
openinteract
site.  The main website didn't have problems serving up html.  So maybe
the choices are narrowed for other directories/locations.  I haven't looked
over the entire httpd.conf.
