I need to run a PHP script automatically on my FreeBSD server when it starts up, but without having to log in to the server shell. I’m not sure how to do this, but I know I have root access.

My server is free hosting server and I have uploaded wordpress in to my server via ftp. But now I cannot run the install.php file. I deleted the index.html file which was already on the server and I run the install.php file but it appears 403 forbidden. So I think I couldnt upload wordpress in to the root directory, please help me to resolve this.

How to upload a file using php on the server?

I am trying to learn php, I have a remot server on a host like hostgator. How do I edit files live, so I dont have to make changes the ftp the files after every edit.

Are there better server side languages than php, and which is easiest to learn?

I’m running on linux. My index.php is in /var/www/html which works because i can view it from a client browser, however it only displays stuff as html, not as php.

I’ve never used php before today so i may be missing something obvious. I assumed that the server should just execute the php. Seems like it’s not though. Any ideas?

Thanks!
