PHP as cgi or apache module ?

[Sharg]

Hi, Got my server :)
It has php4 installed, now how do I know if its installed as a cgi or apache module ?

Also, when I run TOP, I see nothing related to PHP loaded, is this normal ?

Thanks,
Benj

Two ways.... either look at your Apache configuration files for a LoadModule statement for php. Or you can view the output of phpinfo(); and either --with-axps or --with-apache should be listed at the top in the configure command box.

Also, when I run TOP, I see nothing related to PHP loaded, is this normal ?

Perfectly normal, since if you have PHP running as a module, it won't be listed (it's part the the httpd process). However if it was listed, then php is running as a CGI.

Got LoadModule php4_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/libphp4.so in httpd.conf :)
