How can I change my RaQ to accept files that have a php3 extension as a php file??


thanks

Login via SSH or Telnet to your machine. Open the file:

/etc/httpd/conf/srm.conf

If you have PHP3 installed and want it to recognize .php3 extensions, put this line anywhere in the file:

AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php3

If you have PHP4 installed and want it to recognize .php3 extensions as PHP4, put this line anywhere in the file:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php3

Then execute this command:

/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd.init restart

Hope this helps! :)

BTW: This is on a RaQ 3. If this does not work for you, what RaQ are you using?

Sorry for the long delay, but the application I was working on had a version with .php. Now I'm back to this problem. I have a raq4, and I have a line in that file as this:

AddType application/x-httpd-php4 .php3

However, my php3 files still only bring up a download dialog box.

thanks

It is

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php3

and not

AddType application/x-httpd-php4 .php3

Do I have to reboot, or restart anything?

Yes, you have to restart apache. See the posting of Vincent.

Again sorry for the delay.

I tried to restart the server as mentioned above, but I get no such file or directory.

I'm on Raq4.

thanks

ah, of course, you're right.

This should work:

/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart

Sorry

Thanks!
