3.4. PHP

The portal software uses PHP and its MySQL extension. For RedHat 8, the packages php-4.2.2, php-devel-4.2.2 and php-mysql-4.2.2 should be installed.

Verify that PHP is enabled in Apache. A convenient way to do that is to make a .php-file, say phpinfo.php in /var/www/html with the contents

	  <?php
	  phpinfo();
	  ?>

	

It things don't work, check that you have restarted Apache properly (/etc/init.d/httpd restart) and that /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf has

	   AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
	  

in it.
