Fatal error: Call to undefined function: file_get_contents() in SYS:/Apache2/htdocs/EssexNet/lib/eztemplate/classes/eztemplatefileresource.php on line 236
Environment: Apache 2 web server
PHP staement added to conf file: ####Added for PHP 4 7/13/06 KEW ####include sys:/apache2/conf/mod_php.conf

Hello Ken, and Welcome to the Exponential Community!
file_get_contents() is not available in your system. Either your PHP version is too old or system administrator disable it (php.ini).
Look on the requirements page for Exponential:http://ez.no/products/ez_publish/info/requirements_for_ez_publish

PHP is Version 4.2.4-dev want section of the php.ini would enable the functionality?

Unfortunately your PHP version is too low. file_get_contents is available >= 4.3.0. It is highly recommend to upgrade your PHP to the latest version (4.4.2 currently).

Netware 6.5 delivers PHP 5.0 with server install and PHP 5.0 is the ver. now in place. When I open a browser session to a the install wizard the browser displays the .php text file and does not initiate the wizard. What should I investigate, Apache conf or PHP.ini?
Thanks

Exponential 3.x don't support PHP 5, you should use PHP 4.4.x. Your apache needs to be setup to handle php files via the PHP module, something like this:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
You can find more information about this at http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.unix.php

Stian,
I've downloaded the php-4.4.2 zip file, expanded the contents into the php dir. on the sys: volume. I've also reviewed the php install instruction document which is informative for many NOS's expect Netware. The current Apache conf files doesn't have the sections described in the Unix sections of the php 4 install instructions. Are there more Netware specific instructions available somewhere?

Yes it is. See this page:http://developer.novell.com/wiki/index.php/PHP_for_NetWare

Thanks for the link to the php instruction. However I'm still encountering a couple of problems. I added the search paths at the server console. I made the modifications in the Apache conf file. Apache would not load successfully, PHP 4.4.2 does not provide the nlm's required in mod_php.conf called in the Apache conf.
include sys:/apache/conf/mod_php.conf

Ken, I suggest to ask those questions on the Novell NetWare dedicated forums, or use Novell support. This is related to the OS environment mostly. If possible I would recommend to use Linux for the best performance and stability for Exponential.
