Hi, I have just set up a web server running debian linux. After setting it all up i have been able to see html fiel that i put in the var/ww direcotry from other computers, the problem is, is that i like to make most websites in php. I have no idea how to get php to work, if anyone could provide or give me a link to a step by step for debian that is very simple, because i cant find any that work anywhere it would be appricaited Thanks Darren Thanks,

hi well you can just apt-get install php4 that would be the easy way out simon

Hi, I have done that, but it dosnt seem to make any difference, it still wont work with php, it just list the fiels (index of/) it dosnt recognise index.php as a homr page, but if u click on it it still dosnt work, it just asks to download, so the php just dosnt seem to be working at all Thanks DArren Thanks,

If you have php4 already installed, and cannot display php pages on the browser... You need modify the httpd.conf (the problem is Apache, not php). Im sorry for my pour english. check this lines in your httpd.conf: <IfModule mod_dir.c> DirectoryIndex index.html index.php index.htm index.shtml index.cgi </IfModule> and... AddType application/x-httpd-php .php AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps good luck and regards!
