Setup up of PHP on Libranet

I can not get php script to execute.

When I installed Libranet GNU/Linux 2.8.1 it asks me several questions if I wanted to install php, do you want me to fill in the correct information on the php.ini and I answer yes.

But, when I tried to run any php script from the browser it will only ask me if I want to save the file.
There isn't any information on installing phpMyAdmin on Libranet.

So I place phpMyAdmin in the /var/www/ which is asigned root directory and where the index file is for you web page and setup the config.inc.php file with the following:

$cfg[‘PmaAbsoluteUri’]=’http://localhost:80/phpMyAdmin’;

$cfg[‘Servers’][$i][‘host’]=’localhost’;

$cfg[‘Servers’][$i][‘auth_type’’]=’config’;

$cfg[‘Servers’][$i][‘user’]=’myusername’;

$cfg[‘Servers’][$i][‘password’]=’mypassword’;

When I run the following in my browser http://localhost:80/phpMyAdmin

It changes in the browser to http://127.0.0.1/phpMyAdmin

and It Displays the phpMyAdmin directory content, but will not run the index.php script for phpMyAdmin.

I have checked to see if apache and mysql are running and all seems to be ok.

I have done all you have written above, but still get the same thing when I type
http://localhost it gaves me a list of directorys which is fine, but when I click the directory for phpMyAdmin it tells me the ** is of application/x-httpd-php and does not know how to handle this type.
This also happens when I tried to run any php script.

Also, I am getting this when I start apache:
[wed mar 30 07:47.46 2005] [alert apache:could not determine the server's full qualified domain, using 12.0.0.1 for serverName.

I am running php4 not php5 so I did'nt put that line in
LoadModule php5_module modules/libphp5.so

Where is this line?
ServerName localhost

I have done a search and could not find that line.

I found them they were commented out.
I can now run php script, but I can not run phpMyAdmin it go as far as the language menu and stops.

I think I know what the problem is, I am trying to run phpMyAdmin 2.6.pl3
and should go back to and old version for php4.
anyway I think that is the the problem. Let me know if that is correct.

OK, I deleted the phpMyAdmin-2.6.1-pl3
and replaced it with phpMyAdmin-2.2.7-pl1
I have the config,inc.php setup as follows.

$cfg[‘PmaAbsoluteUri’]=’http://localhost/phpMyAdmin’;

$cfg[‘Servers’][$i][‘host’]=’localhost’;

$cfg[‘Servers’][$i][‘auth_type’’]=’config’;

$cfg[‘Servers’][$i][‘user’]=’myusername’;

$cfg[‘Servers’][$i][‘password’]=’mypassword’;

But when I try and run phpMyAdmin Iget the following error.
