php in apache and another question solved.

[Charles Menzes <charles@lunarmedia.net>]

well, i found out my issue with 'configtest' breaking on the SSLEngine 
line. it appears that without DSO support, the config does not need to 
have its secure virtual hosts enclosed in <IfDefine SSL>, however with the 
dyanmic object support, each <VirtualHost foo:443></VirtualHost> container 
needs to be surrounded by <IfDefine SSL></IfDefine>. so once again, 
apachectl configtest yields honest results.

now, however, i am struggling with php. i've compiled apache as i said 
before. i was hoping to use the php rpms that are supplied by redhat. i 
added a symlink within the apache /libexec/ directory to the libphp4.so 
file. when i add the following in my .conf file:

  LoadModule php4_module        libexec/libphp4.so
  AddModule mod_php4.c

running apachectl configtest shows that all syntax is good and stopping 
and starting the server itself shows that php seems to be running.

[Sat Mar 30 09:50:23 2002] [notice] Apache/1.3.22 (Unix) PHP/4.0.6 
FrontPage/5.0.2.2510 mod_ssl/2.8.5 OpenSSL/0.9.6b configured -- resuming 
normal operations

all looks good, however a peculiar thing occurs. all of my non-ssl sites, 
including the root, fail to work, and i receive a 'page cant be 
displayed'. the error log for the server and the particular virtual host 
do not display anything at all. i didnt recompile my apache source with 
any php specific enable options, so i am not certain if this could be the 
culprit. 

help is very appreciated :)
