I am having an issue with Apache 2.4 configuration with PHP5. I have got this:



<Directory / >
Options +ExecCGI
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi

Action backButton /backButton.cgi
AddHandler backButton .html .htm .php
</Directory>


It works for both .html and .htm files (i.e. backButton.cgi runs) but not for .php. I have tried everything I can find on the topic including just having .php (i.e AddHandler backButton .php).



If there is any extra information required please ask.

          You have this set:



          Action add-footer /script.pl
          AddHandler add-footer .html .htm .php


          Which seems odd to me. What is add-footer? What is script.pl? That seems to be an example from the Apache site that would cause requests for files with the html extension to trigger the launch of the footer.pl CGI script. Why would you need that?



          Seems like that should be:



          AddHandler php5-script php


          So your whole Directory directive should be:



          <Directory / >
          Options +ExecCGI
          AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl
          AddHandler php5-script php
          </Directory>


          EDIT: Since the original poster does want the add-footer functionality—now called backButton—it seems that this configuration would be the best way to handle; combine what I am doing above with with the original poster posted to begin with:



          <Directory / >
          Options +ExecCGI
          AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
          AddHandler php5-script .php

          Action backButton /backButton.cgi
          AddHandler backButton .html .htm .php
          </Directory>


          ANOTHER EDIT: Seems like there was a typo the first time with me setting php instead of .php for AddHandler php5-script .php. But also, try this instead using application/x-httpd-php5 instead of php5-script:



          <Directory / >
          Options +ExecCGI
          AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
          AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .php

          Action backButton /backButton.cgi
          AddHandler backButton .html .htm .php
          </Directory>

          • Sorry, your right. I can see where you are coming from. This is indeed of the Apache site but I forgot to change it to my situation. The name add-footer in my case is backButton and /script.pl is /backButton.cgi (which is a bash script). I have edited the post above. What I am trying to do is to add some html content to every .html, .htm and .php page in a specific directory. The catch is I can't edit the pages. The solution above does exactly what I want for .html and .htm pages but not .php pages. The .php page itself runs fine but the extra content is not added.

          • So, I added AddHandler php5-script php to my example in the original post and it didn't make a difference. The php page loads but the html isn't added in.

          • So, I added AddHandler php5-script php to my example in the original post and it didn't make a difference. The php page loads but the html isn't added in.

          • Hmmm… How about AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .php Look at my edit. Made a typo previously as well.

          • Sorry, your right. I can see where you are coming from. This is indeed of the Apache site but I forgot to change it to my situation. The name add-footer in my case is backButton and /script.pl is /backButton.cgi (which is a bash script). I have edited the post above. What I am trying to do is to add some html content to every .html, .htm and .php page in a specific directory. The catch is I can't edit the pages. The solution above does exactly what I want for .html and .htm pages but not .php pages. The .php page itself runs fine but the extra content is not added.
