Subject: [gentoo-user] Setting up a local web server
Date: Fri, 1 Apr 2011 12:57:49 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <201104011257.49639.peter@humphrey.ukfsn.org> (raw)

Hello list,

I want a box on my LAN to be a local web and database server. I've installed 
Apache, MySQL, PHP and phpmyadmin and I'm about to get phpmyadmin going. The 
problem is that Apache is displaying the contents of php files instead of 
interpreting them.

What have I missed? I have USE="apache2 php" in make.conf and APACHE2_OPTS="-D 
PHP" in /etc/conf.d/apache2.

(Why is it so hard to get a web server going in Gentoo? I remember having the 
same difficulty 18 months ago; it'd be good to be able to remember what I did. 
This is the one area I've found where the Gentoo documentation is weak - well, 
nonexistent actually. We ought to have an idiot's guide to getting started, at 
least.)
