Need urgent help regarding Apache2 With mod_fcgid And PHP5 On Debian Lenny

Need help regarding Apache2 With mod_fcgid And PHP5 On Debian Lenny

Hello,

I followed this tutorial http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-set-up-apache2-with-mod_fcgid-and-php5-on-debian-lenny to setup web server with php running FastCGI on my debian vps server.

After finishing the tutorial, it appears i can set it up correct as i can view the PHP Info just like mentioned on the tutorial.

You can see it here : http://ftpservice.intellibi.com/info.php

I hve been developing a script on my local server environment (Windows + XAMPP) and when I uploaded the finished script to my server, I am seeing a blank page, absolutely no error:

http://ftpservice.intellibi.com/api/index.php

I checked the apache2 error log and these are the last few entries on it:

Any idea why I am getting a blank page? How can i diagnose the problem and fix it?

Thanks for any help you can provide me.

Regards, Latheesan.

 

Hi,

I think I asked for help too soon. Since phpinfo() was working, I should have known the setup was fine.

While waiting for a reply, I engaged in a tedious debugging session by putting a exit('Here : '. __LINE__); after every line of code on my index.php to see where the script was halting.

I noticed that, the script stops executing after i call mysql_connect() function, which suggests my server did not have php5-mysql installed.

So, I executed apt-get install php5-mysql and /etc/init.d/apache2 restart as root and visited the script again and everything was fine.

Although one thing still a mystery, why did php not raise any error regarding missing library php5-mysql, and instead it just displayed a empty page?

I had error_reporting set to E_ALL | E_STRICT =/
