Apache is already installed and working. PHP3 is already installed and working Postgresql is already installed and working
PHP3 and Apache work. If I go to http://localhost/test.php3 to get info on php3 it tells me the config script that was used Configure command: ../configure '--with-apxs=/usr/bin/apxs' '--disable-debug' '--with-filepro' '--with-config-file-path=/etc/php3/apache' '--with-zlib' '--without-gd' '--enable-sysvsem' '--enable-sysvshm' '--with-yp' '--with-gettext' '--with-ftp' '--with-system- Therefore I need to get source for php3 (since that is what I already have installed and working) One also has to download apache-dev php3-dev postgresql-dev apt-get install apache-dev php3-dev postgresql-dev I apt-get source install php3 There is a ./setup file in the php3 source directory. I used your suggestions --with-apxs (needs apache-dev) to work otherwise a warning comes up. and --with-pgsql=/usr and BINGO it works!
