I thought I was pretty clear about this one: "As about all the other possibilities (running two apache instances on two different ports/ips or running one php version as cgi) -- they are really not an option for me." As even Adam in his book mentions, his solution is a solution for testing the php5 applications without giving up php4 as the main interpreter. But it's still testing, and the drawbacks are inacceptable for me (can't use the $_SERVER variables and the performance is really low compared to a build-in module).
So, any other willing to show me the hack? :) bgd On Thu, Jun 30, 2005 at 09:08:48AM -0400, Mark Galbreath wrote: > Adam Trachtenberg's "Upgrading to PHP 5" (O'Reilly 2004) describes how to do > this (more or less) in 'Appendix C: Installing PHP 5 alongside PHP 4.' > Basically, you want to install and configure one version of PHP as an Apache > module (--with-apxs) and the other in its default CGI configuration.
