Apologies if there is an answer already in the other post about PHP not working - I looked and tried what I could to no avail.
I’ve got Rocket PHP working from the shell, installed in /Rocket/php/ :
MCZ:~/bin : ll /Rocket/php/bin

echo "PHP is so easy!";
MCZ:~/bin : ./HelloWorld.php
Hello World!
PHP is so easy!
But when I try to run a PHP script fromthe apache server, I get (from the apache log)
EDC5130I Exec format error. (errno2=0xEF076015): [client 10.16.10.14:57693] couldn't create child process: 130: hello.php
EDC5130I Exec format error. (errno2=0xEF076015): [client 10.16.10.14:57693] AH01223: couldn't spawn child process: /u/jocs065/ihsconfig/ihs/jocs065/cgi-bin/hel
This is my script:
#!/Rocket/php/bin/php
<?php
print <<<eot
<html>
<head>
<title>PHP Test Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello World</h1>'
</body>
</html>
eot;
?>
I’ve done this:
Add the following lines to httpd.conf:
> ScriptAlias /php/ " /path/to/php/ "
> AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
> Action application/x-httpd-php “/php/bin/php-cgi”
Open php.ini and change cgi.fix_pathinfo to zero:
> cgi.fix_pathinfo=0
(from Customization server apache and php (Z/os V2r2))
(my scriptalias is actually : ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/u/jocs065/ihsconfig/ihs/jocs065/cgi-bin/")
and I’m pretty sure that the web server is finding my script, it’s just refusing to run it.
I had php working at another site about 3 years ago, and I can’t think of anything else I had to do.
Just to add that previously I had it working using the info in the IBM HTTP server migration redbook but I didn’t need any of the ilphpNoSecure/ilphpSecure wrapper stuff.
And if anyone wants to say “Give up and use Python” then I’m all ears as we have that installed too if it’s easier
