Has anybody here been successful at getting PHP working on a clean install of RedHat 8.0? I've been trying for a week now, and I'd like to make sure it's even possible before I waste too much more time on it.

Thanks,

Yeah, I installed it and it worked remarkably fine without any changes. RH8 uses Apache 2, which isn't so good when using PHP, since the PHP integration with Apache 2 is deemed unstable. I haven't had any troubles with it, but I only run my personal test sites with it, so I can't say how stable it is.

I'd recommend using RPM:s when installing, if you haven't tried that.

Yeah, I did install from RPMs. Did you have to do anything in httpd.conf? I'm getting no response back from phpinfo().

I don't think I had to anything, not that I can remember anyway.

RH8 puts an extra config file in /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf which contains the directives to start PHP.

This file contains the following:
Code
<br />LoadModule php4_module modules/libphp4.so<br /><br /><Files *.php><br />    SetOutputFilter PHP<br />    SetInputFilter PHP<br />    LimitRequestBody 524288<br /></Files><br /><br />DirectoryIndex index.php<br />


Make sure the php module is in apaches server directory, on my system it is located here:
/usr/lib/httpd/modules/libphp4.so
