May 26, 201015 yr Ok, so I've tried two ways to install on a clean Lenny installation. I tried manually installing by installing the required packages and downloading the tar file. I have also tried installing via apt using the debian.froxlor repository. Everything goes fine until it gets to the point where I should be able to go to http://<ip address>/froxlor/ I go to that URL and I am told I need to Configure Froxlor First. Ok (so far so good). Click on the link to go to /install/install.php and Apache refuses to parse that .php file. It prompts me to download the php file instead of parsing it server-side. I tried dropping a generic phpinfo() php file in the /install folder to make sure it executes. It worked fine. I know I am missing something obvious here. Anyone else had this issue?
May 26, 201015 yr Author Did you configured the PHP Module for Apache correct and is the module activated? Yes. Very strange, indeed. I could drop a file that would echo phpinfo() in any of the folders and it would execute fine, but the install.php would always try to download in the browser. I removed everything, re-installed apache/php5, and then did another apt-get install froxlor and it all works now. No idea what the problem was, but it seems to be all good now.

May 26, 201015 yr Author baby-debian might need a "apache stop" and "apache start"....loving debian for this sh*t I tried restarting apache while I was messing around trying to get it going. I think it may have been an issue with the default image my VPS provider uses for Lenny. I've noticed a few screwy things. Permissions on /tmp were wrong that prevented MySQL from running properly. Took me a bit to figure that one out. Regardless, it is going now. I saw on the Twitter feed that there's a version of Froxlor that supports nginx available for testing. Looking forward to that one. Heck, if it is available to test I am willing to do so. Nothing mission critical on my server.
