Help needed please....
I had a working, functioning cPanel installation but in an attempt to put a PHP program on a client domain, things went to heck in an hand basket. The server configuration is:
cPanel 11.24.5-R38506 - WHM 11.24.2 - X 3.9
REDHAT Enterprise 4 i686 standard
The program I was trying to instal, PHPGEDVIEW requires PDO/MySQL. I checked a forum topic here and it suggested going into EasyApache and choosing the two PDO options, and letting EasyApache recompile.
I went through EasyApache choosing all the default options, got to the page where I added the two PDO choices, and let it process, which it did without error.
PHPGEDVIEW no longer gave me a missing PDO/MySQL error, but instead tried to download the PHP?? Then other clients on the server started complaining their PHP scripts were broken.
Called in for support and found out that I hadn't checked PHP4, just PHP5.
Re-ran EasyApache, this time checking the PHP4 box. No errors, completed processing, nothing any different. PHP scripts still wouldn't run.
I am naive, but I "assumed"
the default settings in EasyApache were the "current" settings, and other than adding more features, what I had was still there and would still work? Not realizing there was far more to this that I was told about.
Perhaps a person needs some training before running EasyApache. Perhaps there are options to check that anyone in the "know" would know about that weren't by default checked.
I just know I have a hornet's nest on my had and still don't have the program installed, but that is the least of my worries with so many other domains broken that require PHP.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Lew
