I believe the server is Redhat linux. I'm just helping out with something so I'm new to this particular server also. I did which cc and got "/usr/bin/cc".
The server has php4 installed along with mysql and several other options. Really the only thing needed is the payflow pro functions. Just so I'm clear on what I need to do, does this sound right? 1.) go to usr/bin/cc and type in the configure command from my previous email or is there a way to reference the compiler directory in my configure command? 2.) after that go to the php directory and type in make install? BTW I'm not certain what the php directory will look like because the best candidate I found was one directory that only a php file with no extension. I also found one where the sessions were kept. Also what's typical php installation directory? PHP definately is working on the server so I know that's ok. 3.) Do I need to add anything to the php.ini file or will everything be all set once the configure and make is done?
