Hi,

I am looking into installing PHP on SuSE linux (v7.2).  I currently use
Apache 1.3.19.

Reading through the PHP install instructions (from www.php.net) it seems
there are a number of steps which involve re-installing Apache.  I already
have the Apache webserver installed and operational so I am unsure whether
or not I actually need to do this.  Here are some of the steps the install
instructions give:

1. gunzip apache_1.3.14.tar.gz
2.  tar xvf apache_1.3.14.tar
3. gunzip php-4.0.3pl1.tar.gz
4.  tar xvf php-4.0.3pl1.tar
5.  cd apache_1.3.14
6.  ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache
7.  cd ../php-4.0.3pl1
8.
 ./configure --with-mysql --with-apache=../apache_1.3.14 --enable-track-vars
9.  make
10. make install
11. cp libs/libphp4.a ../apache_1.3.14/src/modules/php4/
12. cd ../apache_1.3.14
13. ./configure --activate-module=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a
14. make
15. make install

Does the above instructions apply to someone who is installing Apache and
PHP? - I only want to install PHP so I can see why I would need to need to
uncompress the apache_xxxx.tar distro?

I have downloaded the latest PHP version.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Cheers

Dan
