I have few files whose extension is htm that i want to run as php using htaccess code
this is the htaccess code that i am using
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .htm .php .html
this code work fine but now i change my hosting server in that this code not working.
i tried all these code but no one work
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .htm .php .html
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .htm
AddType application/x-httpd-php5 .html .htm
my new server says
cPanel Linux Hosting packages only support the SymLinksIfOwnerMatch option in the .htaccess file.
Please point me in right direction how can i run htm file as php on my server
I'm afraid it's a no-go then... If your hosting blocks the appropriate directives in your .htaccess, your only way to go would be to either blackmail or hack the provider, or change the extension from .htm to .php. As this is really a server-administration thing, and if the server administrator doesn't allow you, there is no way you can go around it...
A hacky solution would be to use rewrites to route .htm to .php files. But still then you'd need to rename your files from .htm to .php. This could be a solution if you're app routing isn't setup dynamically and your main concern is that the url's should not be changed. Although changed url's can be caught with 301 redirects.

There is a problem with PHP parsing the html files on my site.
I've been using php in html files, together with the directive
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .html .htm
in the .htaccess file, without any problem for 5 years.
Since a couple of days ago, suddenly it doesn't work anymore.
Only the .php files are parsed properly and the html files are not, anymore
(the actual php code is displayed instead of the result of the execution!)
I contacted the host service but they say they can't offer support.
I thought that for some reason the .htaccess file is not read anymore by the server,
but I tested it with a redirect directive and it worked.
Then I thought that they modified something in the php engine and beside the above mentioned directive I've tried each of the following directives:
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .html .htm
AddType application/x-httpd-php5 .html .htm
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .htm
AddHandler x-mapp-php5 .html .htm
but no success.
So html file are not php parsed anymore, but I've noticed someting interesting about the index.html file:
if I access mydomain.com/index.html the result is bad,
HOWEVER, if I access just mydomain.com then it displays properly !!
(And of course, there is no index.php file). That means the index.html file is actually parsed, in this case.
BUT, the situation stays the same even if the .htaccess file is deleted.
For this particular file (index.html), the behavior is the same in any of the subdirectories.
As the hosting service is not helpful with checking their server configuration settings,
I wonder if there is anything I can try on my side, as I'm stuck with this.
And any hints would be welcome.
Thanks.
I have a website which has a bunch of simple HTML pages. There is a menu in the page and of course the html is repeated across all the pages. I want to be able to put the menu in a php file and then have it as an include in all html files.
I thought I could do this with .htaccess by getting all html files parsed as php. However I'm having real problems getting it to parse. I've been tons of google links and have tried a bunch of stuff but none of it seems to work any ideas:
stuff I've tried:
# Use PHP5.4 as default
AddHandler x-httpd-php .html .htm
AddHandler php-script .php .html .htm
AddHandler php5-script .php .html .htm
AddType application/x-httpd-php .htm
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php54 .html .htm
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php54 .php .html
Not all at once but line by line. None of it worked! The server uses fast cgi so I think actually only the addhandler stuff is needed and it uses 5.4.4
thanks
My answer in the comment (which I shouldn't have done) had the linebreak removed.
Some hosts (including the one I use for their shared servers) have Linux configured differently. You might want to speak with them or check their support documentation, they may have answered it for you.
For my host, this is the correct pair of commands to have PHP execute within files that have a .html extension.
AddHandler cgi-script .html
SetEnv PHP_EXTENSION .html
I'm stuck trying to figure out what directives my htaccess file for a directory needs. To give a little background, I was messing around with AddType and AddHandler to try to get html files to run php in them. I was adding directives like:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html
and
AddType application/x-httpd-php5 .php .html
That didn't work, so I tried adding handlers as well:
AddHandler x-httpd-php .php .html
and
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php .html
That still didn't give me what I wanted so I tried many combinations, like:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html
AddHandler php-script .php .html
I even tried combinations with SetHandler
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html
AddHandler php-script .php .html
SetHandler application/x-httpd-php .php html
I tried every imaginable combination of AddType and AddHandler found on the web.
!===== This is important ======!
I realized that its not good practice to have php run your html files just so you can run php in the html. I am no longer trying to do that. The only reason I'm posting this part above is to give you an idea on some things I've changed. These changes were made to the htaccess file at a directory above the root.
!==============================!
Now that I'm no longer trying to run my php in html files I cleared the AddType, AddHandler, and SetHandler directives from the htaccess file. But now I get an internal server error when trying to run php files.
So I tried putting some stuff back. If I had a handle, the browser now downloads the php instead of running it.
I should note that any php running below the directory I changed works fine. But everything in that directory or subdirectory of that directory has this same problem with php files.
I have tried deleting the htaccess file in that directory, but that does not work, I get an internal error.
If I turn Override off, I get an internal error.
Something I changed is persisting in that directory and I'm wondering how to either
a. turn it off
b. add the correct handler to that htaccess file so that php files are run again (like they are on the rest of the server)
I did have the exact same issue so I deleted all the content of .htaccess and started trying only with handlers until I figured it out. My local .htaccess copy had the following SetHandler:
AddHandler x-httpd-php5-3 .php
In my case it worked after changing it to:
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .php
It seems the whole trick is only the handler, I tried this solution in 2 different servers with different configurations and in both cases just changing AddHandler worked. If this doesn't work for you try a different handler for php.
Hope it helps.
Just realized I left this up unanswered after I solved the problem. If someone has a similar problem and is reading this : Check the permissions on all associated folders. I can't remember the specifics but one of the directories involved (I believe it was the htaccess directory) had permissions that persisted after changing some things and then changing them back.
can't for the life of me work out why this isn't working - on a dreamhost server, I've created an htaccess file and added AddHandler php5-cgi .html .htm to allow php in html files, as per the dreamhost docs. On an identical dreamhost package, I've done the same thing for another site and it worked perfectly, but in this case it just won't parse the php! Is there anything I could have missed here which could be causing the problem? The htaccess is in the web root and isn't being overridden by anything else.
Try this
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .htm
The above setting will work if the apache is picking php as a module.
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .html .htm
or
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .html .htm
above will work if apache is executing php as CGI?
there is no harm i would say to put both of the above conditions together but try one over other and see if it work for you.
read more here in this article I wrote.
Is your server using suPHP rather than mod_php or plain php-cgi?
Try using
AddHandler x-httpd-php .html .htm
or
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .htm
instead.
Postscript
Shared Hosting services use UID based separation on individual accounts from each others. Most use suPHP, but some use suEXEC. They will use one of these. Both act as a su wrapper around php-cgi so you can't tell from the phpinfo()as its PHP scripting engine as this will report Server API CGI/FastCGI in both cases. For CGI initiated scripts, phpinfo doesn't report on the Apache config. You need either to look at your hosting provider's FAQ or possibly try:
<?php
header( "Content-Type: text/plain");
echo system('grep -iR LoadModule /etc/httpd /etc/apache2');
The hosting provider's support forums / FAQ might give specific configuration advice here. Have you tried them?
I've got the same problem as you but I just put this AddType php .html .htm to my .htaccess, it's working.
For me it is working for only like this:
AddHandler php-cgi .php .htm
I have many years experience of working with Apache/PHP/MySQL directly and have only just started using WAMP.
I installed WAMP last week and had my first 4 PHP/MySQL websites up and running immediately. How much easier is this I began to think! That is until I added a fifth site and cannot get php to parse any php file below the websites root directory.
I have a test.php file containing just the word 'hello', ho HTML tags and no PHP directives.
If I place this into /wamp/www/ob/test.php it works, if I place it into /wamp/www/ob/html/test.php the browser comes up with 'You have chosen to open test.php, what should Firefox do with this file? Basically php failed to parse it.
My other sites are working fine with identical setup and this site plus three others were downloaded using Filezilla.
Can anybody help please before I uninstall WAMP and go back to installing Apache/MySQL/PHP manually.
Either the php handler is not turned on for that directory, or the content-type of the returned data is set wrong.
My WampDeveloper Pro setup has this...
<Directory "C:/WampDeveloper/Websites/*/webroot">
AddType text/html .php .php4 .php5 .phps
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php .php4 .php5
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
</Directory>
This turns on PHP for all website folders.
Has a DefaultType text/html in httpd.conf for fallback.
Also check any .htaccess files, they might be setting content-type to something other than 'text/html'.
The pages on the Internet that explain how to make Apache parse the PHP that you add to a file with the extension HTML suggest this:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .php .htm
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .html .php .htm
If your Apache server is configured for php5 but not php, then the result, I believe, is the refusal described. I changed what I added to .htaccess to this (notice the digit 5):
AddType application/x-httpd-php5 .html .php .htm
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .html .php .htm
That fixed the problem for me.
