Setup problems?

How can I setting up the apache+php, in the way that, php is a CGI interpreter?


and also, can I setting up the php to been a cgi interpreter and apache module at the same time.


Lastly, if I can, how does the apache, distinguish which php file should parsed by CGI interperter and which PHP file parsed by apache module??

>> in the way that, php is a CGI interpreter?

Just don't specify --with-apache or --with-apxs.

e.g:

--prefix=/usr/local
--with-config-file-path=/usr/local/etc/php
--disable-pear
--enable-versioning
--with-system-regex
--enable-track-vars

>> can I setting up the php to been a cgi interpreter and...

Yes. Many UNIX systems come with Perl preinstalled. Does that mean they can't install mod_perl? No.

Put PHP CGI scripts in your ScriptAlias'ed cgi-bin, or name those scripts with .cgi extension for execution outside of cgi-bin. Keep in mind that a CGI script doesn't always be Perl, it could be python, shell, TCL, bash or any others. Another signaficant difference is that, you chmod your CGI scripts to be executable, you don't chmod 755 to your PHP script as Apache module.
