Re: [PHP] help installing php
If I remember correctly, when you install MySQL and Apache from rpm you get the binary version and no source is installed on your system. It's been a while since I've looked for them, but there used to be a source rpm for MySQL at the MySQL site, and it took some digging to find it. Ditto for Apache. Take this opportunity to install al three from source -- because you've decided where to put the files you won't be trying to guess where an rpm packager decided they should go. (I've had the same problem with .deb pkgs, but maybe that's because I don't know enough about dselect.) For the Apache source file look for ABOUT_APACHE; for MySQL look for mit-pthreads. I believe those t wo will be relatively unique, certainly better than looking for README.

Re: [PHP] help installing php
I just installed Apache and PHP 4.1.1 on my home computer ( Red hat Linux 7.2) from source and they are isntalled without any problem. If you have already installed apache, then find out the installation directory ( probably /usr/local/apache) and then see if its bin directory is in your path. If not add it. then goto the bin directory and run ./httpd -l. If you see a line called mod_so.c then you can install PHP as a DSO module without the source code for Apache. Follow the steps below and it will work. run configure in your PHP source dir as ./configure --with-apxs [ and rest of the modules you want to enable] make make install If you are using PHP 4.1.1, it comes with builtin support for mysql and is installed by default or you can run ./configure --with-apxs --with-mysql [ and rest of the modules you want to enable] if it says can not find path to apxs, then change the configuration to ./configure --with-apxs=path to apache/bin/apxs [ and rest of the modules you want to enable] where path to apache is where apache is installed ( probably /usr/local/apache) HTH R'twick - Original Message - From: Juni Adi [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Anas Mughal [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, January 18, 2002 2:09 PM Subject: Re: [PHP] help installing php On Thu, 17 Jan 2002, Anas Mughal wrote: |I haven't seen any RPMs for PHP.

Re: [PHP] help installing php
hi juni, although i totally agree with the folks who recommended you compile php from source, maybe it's time you sat down :) compiling apache, mysql and php from source can tax even the greatest patience the first time it is tried. hopefully, here's a couple things to think about. create a directory where you store _all_ your source for everything you compile. lots of folks use /usr/src and i'll assume that here. now, download all the source tarballs you need into that directory and expand them all in there. this should create subdirectories for everything. ie, /usr/src/apache_1.3.22 /usr/src/php-4.1.0 /usr/src/mysql-3.23.40 it's possible that you may need other packages. only you will now what is used on your machine. do you use snmp with php? gd? do y'all also use perl with apache? you'll want to read the documentation that comes with _each_ package you are compiling. especially apache. they know about php. there is lots of good info in there. there are also many sites out there with tutorials on getting these all to compile together. you'll need to decide if you want to compile php as a static or dynamic module. static seems to compile easier for some folks, but dynamic means in the future you only need to recompile php to upgrade it (as opposed to recompiling everything like you are about to do :) the first time you do this, it could take hours just getting it all squared away, and that doesn't necessarily include compile time. after that, it should only take you a few minutes each time. to answer the specific question about apache source, if we assume the directories above, then you would use ../apache_1.3.22. i recommend writing down everything it took to get it all working so you have it for next time. the configure string might look something like ./configure \ --enable-track-vars \ --with-mysql=/usr/local \ --with-apache=/usr/src/apache_1.3.22 \ --enable-trans-sid \ --with-snmp \ --with-ftp \ --with-gd depending on what all you need from php. hope this all helps, mike on 1/18/02 12:09 PM, Juni Adi at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Ok, I'm now in the middle of installing it from source code.

Re: [PHP] help installing php
Juni, Apache, MySQL and PHP are really well debugged when it comes to installation, and I found installation from source easier than messing with .rpms on RH systems and with dselect on Debian. The following article at DevShed has really good instructions: http://www.devshed.com/Server_Side/PHP/SoothinglySeamless/page1.html You can ignore the SSL stuff and certificates if you don't need them.
