Re: [PHP] stupid question...compiling php
Ok, doing that now and it's taking a while. I can do phpinfo but that tells me the config line and where the ini files are, not necessarily where the configure stuff is to recompile...correct?

I made a thinko, it should have been: php -i | grep configure (it should be pretty much instantaneous) I can do phpinfo but that tells me the config line and where the ini files are, not necessarily where the configure stuff is to recompile...correct? correct, other than the system libs (which you refer to for some configure options) - I doubt those would have change. which pretty much leaves the php sources - and this you can download from lots of places (you don't need to recompile from the same directory), if php was installed as a package you will not have the source locally (probably) and the chances are you'll be missing a stack of libs and/or development header files which you would then need to install (again this depends on what configure flag you're going to use) On 8/7/06, Jochem Maas [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: blackwater dev wrote: Ok, I am using a hosted server and php is installed from the linux distro.

Re: [PHP] stupid question...compiling php
I'll bet your hosting environment has not installed the php sources. If the server is shared with other clients, you'll probably need to download the source and compile php in your user space and run it as a CGI (if your host allows this configuration). Hopefully they have some allowances for this, you may want to check with them.
