hey guys, I'm trying to run php5-cgi on a box thats already running php4 apache module successfully. How do I control which folder gets parsed by my choice of php (4 or 5) via .htaccess. I want to avoid changing the extensions to the scripts to .php5 or changing port numbers in apache. I've read that its possible to specify a php.ini file via .htaccess. Is this true, if so how? Am i telling apache where php5-cgi is correctly via .htacces? I have installed php5-cgi and php4 as an apache module.
I added a .htaccess file to a subdirectory where I want scripts to parsed w/ php5 with this text:
| Code: |
DirectoryIndex index.html index.cgi index.pl index.php index.xhtml
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .php
Action application/x-httpd-php5 /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php5
|
Right now, everything gets parsed as a php4 script.
I also read over the tutorial @ howtoforge.com on howto get php5-module working wit php4cgi, and tried to apply these ideas to my setup with no luck. Using directives from that tutorial (altered for my server) caused my browser to return the unparsed script, so it returned:
| Code: |
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
|
instead of returning the php config details.
I'm running ubuntu-server 6.06, apache2, mysql5, and php4-module and php5-cgi are installed. Tips would be great! I'm willing to start from scratch w/ a little direction. |

Normaly you can set one time the handler for PHP 4 and for PHP 5 you can set Action application
Another Idea would be to name the files different, like php and php5 and assiate php to the PHP 4 modul and php to the binary |
