error opening install.php
the browser opens a dialog and asks what program I want to use to open the file. If I select firefox the dialog opens again.
I am using ubuntu linux.
I allready installed apache2, php4, mysql, imagemagick
I tried to open this install file from my windows pc and from linux.
I used IE and firefox.
File permissions are 777 for
please help.
Thank you.
it seems that your server is not configured to actually parse PHP files, so my guess is that PHP is not installed. Create a file named "test.php" with this in it:<?php
echo 'Hello world';
?>.
Upload it to your server and run it in your browser. If it doesn't display "Hello world", but gives you the same message you get when running install.php, you definitely haven't set up your server properly to run php files. In this case, you should look for help on sites that deal with server setup (i.e. apache-related stuff).
Thank you.
I will try to contact somebody who knows apache and php
I installed php using apt-get. I guess it does not automatically install itself into apache
no, it doesn't. You might want to get a full LAMP package if you have issues setting up PHP with apache. There are install docs for php available as well: http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.unix.apache2.php - you have to "tell" apache that PHP is there.
