Hi I have had an incredibly rough time trying to run three cgi-files for a website that i am working on. After reading up a ton, I have honestly found no solution and have tried many recommended solutions. I am on Ubuntu 13.10 and I installed Apache2. Right now I am following these instructions Configure Apache
I go thru all the steps and everything works fine, but I get to this step sudo cp /etc/apache2/sites-available/default /etc/apache2/sites-available/fiz-ix and it returns this in the terminal.
cp: cannot stat ‘/etc/apache2/sites-available/default’: No such file or directory
I then put the files inside sites-available into a folder in sites-available that i made called default and it sitll didn't work though.
I really need some help. I have invested hours trying to get this to work and I really need to get apache to run CGI-Files soon.
Thanks
After some trial and error with cgi and ubuntu 13.10 the following worked
cd /etc/apache2/mods-enabled
sudo ln -s ../mods-available/cgi.load .
sudo ln -s ../mods-available/cgid.load .
sudo service apache2 restart
Regards,
Olav

I am running Ubuntu 16. I am fairly new to web design but I have set up a LAMP server on my Ubuntu machine and installed WordPress site. I wanted to try to mess around with PHP so I tried to install myphp.
I managed to do this and I realized that I had to install nginx also.
I did this, but my local host always diverts to a message "welcome to Nginx"
I tried to edit the configuration files but could not get it to work?
Is there a guide for installing Nginx and myphp to see phpMyAdmin, after you have already set up a WordPress site?
Like I said I am running Ubuntu 16.04.
You may need to delete the index.html file from the web root. The index.php file should remain.
On Ubuntu+nginx go to html directory using following command
cd /var/www/html/
then find out following index.nginx-debian.html and delete it or edit it as you want
To edit these file open into you editor or use Ubuntu default editor nano.
sudo nano /var/www/html/index.nginx-debian.html
To delete these file run following command.
sudo rm -rf /var/www/html/index.nginx-debian.html
these is the defautl nginx welcome page that why it appear after install, for more information check nginx default configuration file using following command.
sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/default
Thanks
I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 and I want to run php files.
I installed Php 7 on it using:
sudo mkdir -p /var/www/html
sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /var/www/html
sudo apt install php
sudo apt install apache2
I created a php file (e.g. test.php) in /var/www/html. I can access it in the browser (e.g. http://localhost/test.php). Instead of executing the <?php ... ?> code, it is displayed as plain text:
I tried to turn short_open_tag to On. So I edited the /etc/php/7.0/fpm/php.ini and enabled it.
Then I ran sudo service php7.0-fpm restart. This didn't make any change in the browser. The php code is still displayed as plain text.
How can I fix this?
You didn't install apache properly, doing an apt-get on apache2 does not install everything.
what #newman stated is correct you can follow that guide, or here is a digitalocean link that is usuable for production server (since you would do this on a droplet). Note this is full stack LAMP, which I would assume you would get to eventually when you want to dab with mysql

I am trying to build a vm, where exactly one user (as sudo or not) can brew and start a custom php build.
The current "default" php version should be started as phpbrew fpm process on system start. I was putting something like
phpbrew fpm start
in /etc/rc.local which seems to result in starting up the process. But the process is terminated as soon, as the rc.local script finished. It seems, that without an active login session, the process can't live.
Any suggestions, as how to make the fpm process survive?
Many thanks in advance.
You can modify this config according your needs.
phpbrew 1.22.0 now supports "fpm setup --systemctl" command to help you setup the service.
be sure to enable --with-fpm-systemd when building your php.
In phpbrew build directory it is exists ready file. For example:
~/.phpbrew/build/php-7.0.22/sapi/fpm/init.d.php-fpm
But more comfortable way is: temporary change owner of /etc/init.d to current user, then run command
phpbrew fpm setup --initd
then return back
sudo chown root:root /etc/init.d
sudo chown root:root /etc/init.d/phpbrew-fpm
and then
sudo update-rc.d phpbrew-fpm defaults
If you run it in macOS.
sudo PHPBREW_PHP=$PHPBREW_PHP phpbrew fpm setup --launchctl
and then add it to your launchctl list.
# Activate a system-wide daemon to be loaded whenever the system boots up (even if no user logs in):
sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/<path_to_phpbrew>.plist
I'm having trouble installing IonCube Loader on my Amazon Linux x64 instance.
I'm following these instructions below but the paths are way off and I can't seem to locate the right ones on my install.
For x64:
wget http://downloads2.ioncube.com/loader_downloads/ioncube_loaders_lin_x86-64.tar.gz
tar xfvz ioncube_loaders_lin_x86-64.tar.gz
Proceed as follows:
cp ioncube/ioncube_loader_lin_5.3.so /usr/lib/php5/20090626/ioncube.so
Now edit to match:
zend_extension = /usr/lib/php5/20090626/ioncube.so
nano /etc/php5/conf.d/ioncube.ini
First, there is no /usr/lib/php5/20090626/ folder. I changed these paths to /usr/lib64/php/modules and included the .so file in there.
However, I cannot seem to locate any ioncube.ini file to edit. Any help is appreciated...
Thank you!
For future readers sake, there is a difference between Amazon's Linux and other versions that most articles online refer to.
You can follow the first two steps above to get the installer, I like to use a temporary folder. Do this as root:
sudo -i
cd /tmp
wget http://downloads2.ioncube.com/loader_downloads/ioncube_loaders_lin_x86-64.tar.gz
tar xfvz ioncube_loaders_lin_x86-64.tar.gz
Copy the required extension to a slightly different folder under EC2 linux instances, and the loader wizard to your webroot:
cp ioncube/ioncube_loader_lin_5.4.so /usr/lib64/php/modules/ioncube.so
Create your ini file:
echo "zend_extension=/usr/lib64/php/modules/ioncube.so" > /etc/php.d/ioncube.ini
Reload Apache (if you're using it):
service httpd restart
I'm using NGINX and PHP-FPM, in this case you'd probably want to restart PHP-FPM as well as NGINX.
Lastly, use the loader wizard to test it by navigating to http://example.com/loader-wizard.php, and delete the temp files and loader wizard when finished:
rm -rf /tmp/ioncube*
rm /var/www/html/loader-wizard.php
I followed the instructions provided here in the first answer, making allowance for the fact that I'm runnning PHP 5.6:
sudo cp ioncube_loader_lin_5.6.so /usr/lib64/php/5.6/modules/ioncube.so
echo "zend_extension=/usr/lib64/php/5.6/modules/ioncube.so" > /etc/php.d/ioncube.ini
However, when restarting Apache, I found that it started then failed immediately. The Apache log gave me this error:
PHP Fatal error: [ionCube Loader] The Loader must appear as the first entry in the php.ini file in Unknown on line 0
I changed the name of the file from ioncube.so to 00-ioncube.so and restarted Apache. This solved the problem by making this file load before the other modules.
I am newbie in PHP. I have successfully installed PHP on Ubuntu, now I want start my first program. I am using gPHPEdit as IDE.
Where should I save .php files that I create? And how to run/test them?
Make sure you have LAMP installed. Do a sudo tasksel and select lamp then hit enter, its gotta be the most simple *amp install ever made. Its a good idea to install phpmyadmin: sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin. After that just copy the files to /var/www/ and then they will show up on http://localhost. I recommended using Eclipse PDT or the Netbeans build for PHP.
You should pick up a book or start following some good tutorials on the web.
If you are just scripting using php, you can save them anywhere and run the php on the terminal using the php command line interpreter.
If you are trying write web scripts (and I think you are), you need to install and configure a web server (typically apache) and save your scripts in the server's document root (typically /var/www). Also, I highly recommend you to read up a little about servers and HTTP and figure out how all this works on the inside before learning to building websites in php.
If you cannot save or copy to var/www/html, to run your php scripts on your browser. If you are using Ubuntu 14.04.
I followed these steps and it worked for me.
Execute sudo su on the terminal.
Enter your password
Execute sudo subl /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf on your terminal to open this file. Note you can change the subl to any text editor to open the file e.g sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf.
Change DocumentRoot /var/www/html to /home/user/yoursubdir
Save the file and close it.
Execute sudo subl /etc/apache2/apache2.conf on your terminal to open this file.
Add the following to end of the file
<Directory /home/user/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Require all granted
</Directory>
Save and Close the file.
Execute sudo service apache2 restart
Go to your browser, type the URL of your script e.g 127.0.1.1/directory/document.php.
I hope this helps.
remove the index.html file from /var/www/
$ sudo rm index.html
create a new php file there:
$ sudo gedit /var/www/index.php
write in it:
<?php
print_r(phpinfo());
?>
Restart your Apache2 Server :
$ sudo service apache2 restart
OR
$ sudo /etc/init.d/apace2 restart
and point to yout localhost and /index.php
if err arises visit : http://www.allaboutlinux.eu/how-to-run-php-on-ubuntu/
https://www.php.net/manual/en/features.commandline.webserver.php
this is an easy way to test your files in php.
$ cd ~/public_html
$ php -S localhost:8000
then you can go to your browser and enter localhost:8000/myfile.php.
