Page doesn't render

[szlamany]

I've got a customer that downloaded a open-source PHP product called DRUPAL. They installed this with MySQL and Apache onto a server.

When you visit the page (//FPSREAD/DRUPAL in the browser addr) it shows a list of files in that folder, as opposed to rendering the INDEX.PHP. One of those files was the index.php - which we could click on and get the page.

We messed with the apache config - changing the default page from INDEX.HTML to INDEX.PHP - restarted the service - but that did not work.

Now we changed it back to INDEX.HTML - back to displaying the file list.

But now when we click on INDEX.PHP it will no longer ever render that page.

Help!

post what version of PHP/Apache you're using, and post the lines in the httpd.conf that add the PHP module.

as for the DirectoryIndex, make sure you're not using commas. this should work fine:

DirectoryIndex index.php index.html index.htm

//FPSREAD/DRUPAL in the browser addr

Unless I am mistaken this notation causes the browser to browse to a remote file share.

You want to use http://... instead. This makes a request to the remote web server.

Thanks - but didn't change anything...

you need to give us more information. what is your DirectoryIndex set as in httpd.conf? is PHP executing the files now? if not, what errors are you getting, if any?

create a separate page with the text:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

and open it in your browser. does that pull anything up?
