No errors at all in any of the logs.
I am running php 4.2.3, are there any issues related to this version of php or something
Thanks

One thing... How is the php-script handler defined in your httpd.conf? //Daniel

No, I asked how the php-script handler is defined. Not how you use it, as I've already seen that. //Daniel

 

[SkyHigh]

Sorry about that, but I am not sure what you are asking, can you please explain what and where you want me to check that - Thanks for your time

Last time I checked, the PHP module includes no php-handler.
Do you have a line similar to this in your httpd.conf?

Action php-handler ....

//Daniel

 

[SkyHigh]

No Action php-handler in httpd.conf file

Are you able to start Apache? Try typing httpd -k start at a console. Do you get any errors or does it start as it should? //Daniel

Hi

I am seeing the following error in the access_log file as whenever I try to add something which in turn the php tries to write to the data, this error appears:

-----------Error------------

10.1.2.124 - - [19/Sep/2002:10:37:31 -0400] "GET /pinboard/pin.css HTTP/1.1" 304 -
10.1.2.124 - - [19/Sep/2002:10:37:31 -0400] "GET /pinboard/images/logo.gif HTTP/1.1" 304 -

-----------Error------------

All the files are owned by the apache user in the DocumentRoot and I did chmod 777 on all the files for checking sake.


Can you please think of something
Tks
