dealing with a old machine, the compile times are not fast... /shurgs/
but hey, gets the job done.
just wanting to make sure of that option, so that i didn't waste 3 hours.

I think --enable-so and --enable-module=so are both valid, so that shouldn't be the cause of the problem. I don't think the distro should matter. Did you add those lines to your httpd.conf? Are there any messages on startup?
Also the LoadModule line should be replaced with the following:
LoadModule php4_module modules/libphp4.so

the main problem i'm finding is the proper 'switch' for the ./configure script for apache 2, to enable it to use dynamically linked objects... like php.
its either --enable-so
or
--enable-module=so
the first came from php.net, second from a different site.
?

On a non-gentoo system, go to php.net and read the instructions. IIRC, there are two lines that look like this
LoadModule libexec/libphp4.so (or whatever the php module is called) AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
and, optionally,
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
Hope that helps. I'm not sure what Shawn is talking about. I'm running gentoo, but I would still prefer to compile apache+php from source rather than portage.

Getting PHP running with Apache requires you to make a change to the config
files, so that Apache knows to load the mod_php module when it starts up.
Put this line in your /etc/conf/apache2 file (on a Gentoo server at least -
might be different on other distros)
APACHE2_OPTS="-D PHP4"
(If you need SSL support, then you would also have a "-D SSL")
you'll have to restart Apache for the change to take effect. You might also
need to add the mod_php to your apache2.conf file
(/etc/apache2/conf/apache2.conf on my server).
As for reading your old apache .configure info, if you can get php running
before you upgrade Apache, then you can load a php page into your browser
with the following line in it:
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
This will display what options PHP has access to, and down near the bottom
(or is it the top?) of the page will be the .configure information for
Apache.

./configure --enable-so --prefix=/usr/local/apache2 ./configure --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --with-mysql --enable-ftp
those are the config lines i used to try and install apache 2.0 and php
4.3.5
i got apache running, but it wouldn't use php at all, or seem to find it.
and i'm trying to load php, the 'dynamic' way, so i don't have to recompile apache, each time i upgrade php.
running yellowdog linux 2.3
also, is there a way to have the ./configure script for apache, 'look'
at my old settings for apache 1.3, and use the settings it can to setup
the new server?
thanks.
