[pmwiki-users] more on fedora 5 / pmwikiserv problems

[Lindsay Todd]

I reported the other day the problems I have had running pmwikiserv on 
my Fedora Core 5 system (PHP 5.1.6).  I am still not a PHP hacker, but 
I've delved a bit further into the problem, and maybe someone can give 
me a bit of help.

The symptom was when I opened http://localhost/wiki, I saw what looked 
like the html file with the top several lines chopped out.

Adding some echo statements to ProcessResponse, I discovered that the 
regexp was splitting the response at a blank line.  This is supposed to 
be the division between the header and the body -- but there was no header!

If I type:  php pmwiki.php and pipe through more, I see that HTML file, 
but no header.  If I do the same on a RHEL-4 system, I see the 
Content-type and X-Powered-By headers, followed by a blank line, 
followed by the HTML body.

Indeed, if I start up php on my Fedora Core 5 system, Control-d to exit, 
there is no output.  Do the same on the RHEL-4 system, and headers 
appear, followed by the blank line.

OK, what is a portable way to make sure PHP displays these headers?
