[users@httpd] ugh...Apache 2.0.44 + PHP 4.2.2 on RHL8 please help

["Stone, Timothy" <ts...@cityofhbg.com>]

I'm installing TUTOS (tutos.sf.net) on my RHL8 staging server.

Everything in the install guide is completed except the loading of the TUTOS database into my PostgreSQL install. This appears to be accomplished by navigating to a PHP page and following instructions. However, each time I visit the page I'm presented with a download dialog for the page!

	"You have chosen to download a file of type: application/x-httpd-php..."

Okay, before you say "AddType..."

Note that TUTOS provides an include conf that provides this information. Here are some further details.

I have the following environment:

A *custom* install of Apache 2.0.44 running (/usr/local/apache)
   This install appears not to have a PHP module. Do I need one?

The *default* PHP install with RHL8...
    
    % php -v
      4.2.2
    % which php
      /usr/bin/php
    % ls -ld /etc/php.ini
      -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 29233 Feb 13 09:12 /etc/php.ini

Without going into the details of TUTOS, installation is straightforward and an "apache.conf" file is included that sets up the basics for Apache via an Include directive...

    ...
    Include /usr/local/apache/htdocs/tutos/apache.conf
    ...

The file provides a number of directives via a Directory block, including:

	AddType application/x-httpd-php .php 
	AddType application/x-httpd-pinc .pinc
	...
	Allow from all
      ...

Any help trying to debug the PHP handling is greatly appreciated.
      

Warmest Regards,
Tim
