Either use phpsuexec or do a loop back with AOL.

Hi

This is great, I tink only one part is missing or I did not see it:

if you had PHP values in the .htacces file, they where recursive. This means they where also valid for the subdirectories. If you use now a php.ini file, they are only valid for this directory where you place the file, but not in the subdirectory.

won't it be less complex to just change the name from which apache is run ? Change the nobody user to something else... !!

I enabled phpsuexec on php 4.4.2 but now many sites show a popup dialog "save file as".

What could cause this?

I ran /scripts/chownpublichtmls and still getting

500 error
403 forbidden
save file as popups

I was successful on ANOTHER server but I got one client with this complaint

Sites down that use, User Defined Mime Types
Instead of executing a HTML as PHP I get a 500 error

What should I do in this case?

can someone tell me is there a way to monitor email messages (well not the actual email messages but only headers) of who sent to whom?
i just use this command:
tail -100 /var/log/maillog
but can tail offer more options as in indicating a particular email address to monitor something like in the format username@domain.com ? pls. advise.

i posted on this thread for i don't see any thing related to spam suspects or avoidance of it.

I got a little confict as shown below from a copy/paste message from a client

PHP code inside of html pages will only work if the file is named with a php file extension (filename.php and not filename.html). You will have to edit other pages that link to filename.html to reflect the php extension change.

Example code for this issue:
<html>
<head>
<title>PHP Inside HTML Test</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>
<body>
<?php print( "Hello" ); ?>
</body>
</html>
Save the code as test.html will display a blank page.
Save the code as test.php will display Hello on the page.

----------------------

This means a complete rebuild of all of my websites with a change between .HTML and .PHP extentions + this change will KILL all of my results in search engines, is there no way around this?

I have worked very hard to promote www.mysite.com – it uses HTML files with PHP syntax in them and right now I do not know what to do. (I repeat: changing of the filenames will make all the promotion work I’ve done and all the money spend on a complete waste, that is not good)

-----------------------

What can be done in this case if phpsuexec support is enabled?

dave9000 · #11 (**permalink**) 03-19-2006, 03:50 PM

to run html pages with php embedded into them put these commands into the .htaccess file in the public_html folder for the site

Quote:

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .htm
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .html
AddType application/x-httpd-php .htm
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html

and then go into the cpanel for the site and then into the apache handlers section and add .htm and .html as server-parsed

this will enable you to use embedded php inside .htm and .html files while using phpsuexec

Thanks what about this?

Client gets an error 500

All I can see in the error log is

[Mon Mar 20 09:13:47 2006] [error] [client 68.142.xxx.xxx] Premature end of
script headers: /home/client/public_html/client/index.php

and index.php is a symlink 2 levels deep.

I had alrady ran all the commands for chmodding

There is no htaccess file in public_html
php.ini is there with

memory_limit = 128M
upload_max_filesize = 10M
default_charset = UTF-8
safe_mode = Off
mbstring.internal_encoding = UTF-8
mbstring.encoding_translation = 1
mbstring.http_output = UTF-8
allow_url_fopen = 1

dave9000 · #13 (**permalink**) 03-20-2006, 01:15 PM

check for any .htaccess files in the web and make sure they do not have any php directives in them as phpsuexec will error out

also make sure no directories or files are 0777 permissions

beyond that without a lot more specific detail its going to be hard to tell

also check your /usr/local/apache/logs/suexec_log for any errors

Another problem:
(quoting client)

Since the security upgrade on server4 this morning, I am no longer able to access the mailing list archives.

This URL is encountering the error code 500 that your note warned about, however the script is not contained in my home directory. I assume that you have aliased this to point to a server-wide installation.

and

Existing symbolic links are no longer working. Is there a work around for this?

The index.html file is simply a symbolic link to passwordmaker.html, which is simply an HTML page with permissions of 644. I am not sure why this is now giving me an HTTP error code of 500

As for the other problem with the 500

Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@client.com.es and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

I tailed /usr/local/apache/logs/suexec_log
