LAMP Stack - 404 not found - PHP
Question
Hello I am trying to configure a LAMP stack
CentOS 7 Apache MariaDB PHP
I have installed everything and configured my virtual host and folders.
For testing I have a domain. example.com
in /var/www/example.com/public_html I have two files.
Index.html (Basic page)
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC>
<html>
<body>
<form action="/var/www/example.com/public_html/info.php" method="POST">
Department: <input type="text" name="department"><br><br>
Subname: <input type="text" name="Subname"><br><br>
lables: <input type="text" name="lables"><br><br>
pagerduty: <input type="text" name="pagerduty"><br><br>
description: <input type="text" name="description"><br><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit" name="submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
info.php (Form handler)
<?php
$hostname = "localhost";
$username = "root";
$password = "xxxxxxxxx";
$db = "dora";
$dbconnect=mysqli_connect($hostname,$username,$password,$db);
if ($dbconnect->connect_error) {
die("Database connection failed: " . $dbconnect->connect_error);
}
if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {
$department=$_POST['department'];
$subname=$_POST['subname'];
$lables=$_POST['lables'];
$pagerduty=$_POST['pagerduty'];
$description=$_POST['description'];
$query = "INSERT INTO dora (department, subname, lables, pagerduty, description)
VALUES ('$department', '$subname', '$lables', '$pagerduty', '$description')";
if (!mysqli_query($dbconnect, $query)) {
die('An error occurred when submitting your review.');
} else {
echo "Thanks for your review.";
}
}
?>
Going to http://localhost:80 - Loads my index.html page
Going to http://localhost:80/info.php - Loads the PHP screen
My issue is when I complete the form and click submit, I get a 404 error where info.php cannot be found.
Am I missing something, everything looks like it should work all permissions etc.
This is my first time doing this but I followed the instructions well...any pointers would be great.
Many thanks

Your form action is pointing to a location on disk, not to a location relative to your public HTML folder.
Change this:
<form action="/var/www/example.com/public_html/info.php" method="POST">
to this:
<form action="info.php" method="POST">
Also please keep in mind that your codebase is vulnerable to SQL injection (as an example, try adding a single-quote to one of your form inputs).

You need to change the form action to following
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC>
<html>
<body>
<form action="info.php" method="POST"> Department: <input type="text" name="department"><br><br> Subname: <input type="text" name="Subname"><br><br> lables: <input type="text" name="lables"><br><br> pagerduty: <input type="text" name="pagerduty"><br><br> description: <input type="text" name="description"><br><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit" name="submit"> </form> </body>
