Is there a way to take advantage of Qmail toaster by installing it on
a machine without using the stock PHP and MySQL RPMS that come with
CentOS 5.3?
I have been fighting this for a while and it appears I am almost
there with a bit of tweaking, however, I need to rebuild vpopmail
manually, or rebuild the src RPM to use my install of mysql which I
built from source. My installation of MySQL is located in the default
location for a source build at /usr/local.mysql, the src RPM for
vpopmail-toaster configures vpopmail to look elsewhere. I would like
to adjust this myself with custom vpopmail-toaster spec file, but I
am just running into problems doing so. For one, the scr RPM deletes
the spec file. So how can I unpack the src RPM to make my tweaks?
I know I should just run the whole thing the way it is, I should not
be tweaking this stuff and it is not recommended, however using the
stock PHP and MySQL is just not an option for me, nor is dedicating
another server just for a Toaster install, so please, how can I pull
this off?
Jake's got you covered.
Have you considered that perhaps you should have built MySQL from
source using the CentOS location? :( You'd be compatible with all of
the packages for CentOS that use MySQL that way. :)
I considered that possibility, but then it seemed to just open up a
whole other can of worms. I settled for running my own custom builds of
MySQL and PHP (different ports, different socks, different directories)
alongside those that come with CentOS. Thanks for the thought.
