[solved] Apache2 and PHP5 problem

[smeghead67]

Ok, I'm running Kubuntu 10.04 32 bit only os on box
Pentium 4 mobile
1.25GB RAM
on a Dell inspiron 600m Laptop

i wanted to mock up a idea for a web site, so i wanted to put in a lamp stack on this laptop.

I tried a seltask instation of a lamp stack it wouldn't work. so i tried from synaptic, Apache2 works, it wont do/parse .php files.

i have added the following to the httpd.conf file
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

i made sure apache2-mod-php is installed.

any other hints?


Edit - The problem was I was cut and pasting the .php file from a .pdf copy of a for dummies book, when i type it in fresh it works.
Thanks

Re: Apache2 and PHP5 problem

My server is also my desktop, and it runs Kubuntu, and for the server software on that I installed apache2, php5-mysql, libapache2-mod-php5, mysql-server. It all works together well, and PHP and everything works fully too. Btw, I used apt-get (sudo apt-get install apache2 php5-mysql libapache2-mod-php5 mysql-server).
