Hello again Mitch, We were listening as I have already told you that PHP is only considered stable with Apache 1.3. Version 2 is still not production ready. Use at your own risk! I've not even bothered trying to compile for it because of that reason.
I do however have a working version of PHP 4.3.0 and Apache 1.3 running on a RH80 box with httpd2 removed. I'd pick stability over bells & whistles any day. Thats why we run on *nix and not Windoze ;o) Regards, - Paul - ----- Original Message ----- From: "Goetz Lohmann" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, February 06, 2003 2:25 PM Subject: Re: [PHP-INST] unique install, having problem > Mitch Pirtle schrieb: > > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > > Hash: SHA1 > > > > On Thursday 06 February 2003 14:32, Goetz Lohmann wrote: > > > >>Mitch Pirtle schrieb: > >> > >>>-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > >>>Hash: SHA1 > >>> > >>>On Wednesday 05 February 2003 01:33, Benjamin Tomhave wrote: > >>> > >>>>Greetings, > >>>> > >>>>I have a legacy site that has yet to migrated from 4.0.x to 4.3.x era > >>>>code.
