Trying to configure 3 LAMP servers to operate consistently has been a
challenge (LiveCD, Minimum Desktop Server, Minimum Server). The good
news is I'm relearning the SysAdmin skills in a new era (with lots of
on-line tips....some
helpful, some not). Bad news is that no 2 updates (yum, or
Add/Software, or groupinstall) seem to act the same. This is
probably my inexperience talking.
So the 'what's wrong with PHP/phpMyAdmin?' problem solved itself today
when I entered 'http://localhost' and found
that WORDPRESS is defaulting to my Root HTTP directory. As a test, I
put a symbolic link in the wordpresss/ directory to my root
/phpmyadmin folder and Bingo, the application appreared. Go figure.
Now I need to look into a misconfigured 'httpd.conf' file (perhaps) to
see why WORDPRESS thinks it owns my root
HTML directory.
Cheers

Subject: PHP 5.3.3 (Bang Head Here)
To: clue at cluedenver.org
Clue-List -
I work with 2 Centos 6.2 boxes side-by-side (with different
behaviours). Both are basic LAMP servers, one is a beef-ed up server
(for KVM hosting) and the other is a 'sandbox' installed as a
'Minimal' Centos 6 configuration. My current project is to 'kick the
tires' on Drupal 7 and WordPress and look to setting up a next-gen
site for my portal --> http://securityfeeds.com/drupal
My current 'Bang Head Here' moment comes from looking at the PHP
operation on these two boxes (php.ini, php.conf files are identical).
Here's the scorecard -
Minimal Server - PHP 5.3.3 installed, PhpMyAdmin installed and running
(for Drupal), simple functionality (php testing script) works fine
Beefy Server - PHP 5.3.3 installed, WordPress (all *.php scripts)
running fine. All browser calls to PHP scripts yield either 'white
screen of death', or 'File Not Found'
errors. Cannot bring up PhpMyAdmin (file note found) <-- Go figure
I've spent a 'wheels spinning' Monday trying every Debug tip I could
find. Neither box wants to write to the /var/log/php_error.log that
gets configured into the
'php.ini' script. I'm also hesitant to uninstall/reinstall the PHP
module while I have a WordPress instance configured and working.
Thanks for any advice.
