hey wht

we're trying to set up a php bugtrack helpdesk in my workplace.

im limited to information on the system, however i am aware it's on a windows server with iis (iss?)...

the index.php works fine, but when you log in with the admin credentials the login page displays all the source code rather than executing.

im hoping there may be any obvious or glaring errors for me to check out with the IT guy. can anyone help?

many thanks :)

It's on Windows Server with Apache.
Open httpd.conf, scroll to line <IfModule mime_module> and add this:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

Do you have this line in the file already?

Are you sure the index.php works fine? Are you sure it's not an index.html? I suggest you upload a simple PHP test program to verify whether PHP is working at all on your server - if it is, verify if it works from within the admin directory. If it doesn't, ask your IT guy what the difference between the admin directory and the main directory is.

thanks for your help guys!

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php is in already, i just checked.

we created a test php file to display all the php info and it;s working fine.

the index.php works ok, but when we go to log in with the admin password the php file seems to display half the php in the browserr window.

im gonna test it on my linux setup tonight.

it's frustrating cause it's just an additional project for myself - im the web admin and im trying to set up a web helpdesk. i normally work with linux in my spare time, so im not clued up on the windows differences. i was hoping the it guy would be knowledgful, but as it's not a priority it's not getting much attention.

back to google for me!

could it be that some of the php files have

<?

rather than

<?php

at the tops of the files?

looks like this may be the problem!

hello mr IT guys job!

most php installations by default allow <? or <?php as php tags so it shouldn't be your problem.

how can you be use that he has a default php installation? :? Dont really see the point of your post, especially when he replied that it was indeed the problem..

I suggest recompile PHP again.
