Restarting PHP on apache server (under Mac OSX)

[Rupert S]

For the nerd amongst you. I've just upgraded the OS of my server (to Tiger). It's also reset all my server settings and turned off php. I know it comes installed on Mac OSX anyway so it's just a matter of starting it. I've done it before but forgotten how! There a command in the terminal somewhere or there's a file that can be manually edited. Either's fine. Thanks if you can shed any light!

I book marked this page (http://webmonkey.wired.com/webmonkey/00/44/index4a.html?tw=programming) on my first and only attempt at PHP. If I remember correctly you need to add an "AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml" to your httpd.conf file and then restart the httpd service.

Try this in the terminal:

/etc/httpd/httpd.conf

Uncomment out these two lines, by removing the leading hash character:

#LoadModule php4_module
#AddModule mod_php4.c

You'll need to restart (stop, then start) the "Personal Web Sharing" Preference Pane.
