Topic: Apachelite and Apache

[glsmith]

yes sir

[Roger Bird]

So I did exactly as told to install Apache as per instructions on page:

http://www.apachelounge.com/viewtopic.php?t=2394

When I try to email (to myself) and echo my info, I get a copy of the source code and this in the error log as the very last entry:

[Tue Oct 13 09:38:05 2009] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs/favicon.ico
[Tue Oct 13 09:38:08 2009] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs/favicon.ico

I also get this repeatedly:

httpd.exe: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 192.168.1.2 for ServerName

The missiong favicon.ico is nothing to worry about. That is just the little icon that you can see in the adressbar like on apachelounge.

For the server name you can add this to your httpd.conf

[Roger Bird]

Dear James,

My httpd file has this commented out:

#ServerName localhost:80

Should I use "localhost" or "localhost:80"

Roger

[James Blond]

if you don't use ssl you can use localhost:80

[Roger Bird]

What does "ssl" mean?

Roger

[glsmith]

The manual is your friend
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/ssl/ssl_intro.html

[Roger Bird]

Well, although I believe that the manual is my friend, in this case it did not help much. It told me what an SSL is, and I found it to be very cool and perhaps useful in the future, what I really need is to know whether I have it in my system and what to do about it.

I did search httpd for SSL, and all references to it seemed to be commented out. So I will act accordingly.

[Roger Bird]

I still get the source code rather than any html display.

The error log shows:

[Fri Oct 16 14:05:21 2009] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs/favicon.ico
[Fri Oct 16 14:05:23 2009] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs/favicon.ico

I suspect that I do not have a vital file called favicon.ico

Help, please.

[glsmith]

Looking back

PHP is located in c:\php5 or c:\php, you state one and show a different in your path.

You have added
LoadModule php5/module c:/correct-one/php5apache2_2.dll?

You have added
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php5
or similar?

[Roger Bird]

So, I believe you about the favicon, but I still get no browser display and only source code and the error.log is only:

[Thu Oct 22 09:38:27 2009] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs/favicon.ico
[Thu Oct 22 09:38:30 2009] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs/favicon.ico

I guess that whatever is not turning the source code into browser display has nothing to do with the favicon business. But what does it have to do with.

[Roger Bird]

I commented out everything to do with mailing and it still shows my source code rather than the browser processed display.

[James Blond]

Now I get it. You see the PHP source code!

See Basic PHP Troubleshooting
if you still have a question please ask again.

[Roger Bird]

I am going back through all of the replies in this thread and making sure that I understand everything and I did everything suggested. In the meantime, I would like a recommendation about a text editor. I am using Notepad, and frankly, it has problems with extensions. I am, of course, looking for something free. What do you recommend?

Roger, very lucky Daddy.

[Roger Bird]

I found the "windows event viewer" but I could not see how it would help me. Please explain.

Roger

[James Blond]

Editor for PHP or httpd.conf?
Free and good is Notepad++.

In the Windows Event Viewer there is Application and System. There you can look for errors that are caused by apache (httpd.exe). That might help when there is an application error.

Lucky Daddy? You became father of a apache or a real child?

[Roger Bird]

My little boy is 10 years old, but I still marvel at his wonderfulness. [For all of you young or non fathers, the previous sentence is a self-fulfilling prophesy. For you old fathers, it is probably too late.] Sometimes I just can't contain my joy over his dearness and preciousness, and I emote forth with silly things like "Lucky Daddy".

He does look like an Apache, but he is 1/2 honky and 1/2 Filipino. And he did 40 kip-ups in a row without a single mistake.

Roger, Lucky Daddy

P.S. But this has absolutely nothing to do with website development.
