Re: PHP Installation on Redhat 8 - General Questions

What you need to do is go into your apache_1.3.26/src/modules/php4 directory and and clean out the libphp files. 1. Stop apache. 2. Remove lib files from apache_1.3.26/src/modules/php4 3. Do a make clean in apaches top dir. 4. Do a make clean in php top dir. 5. Remove config.cache in php dir. 6. Then recompile php -> make -> make install 7. Then recompile apache -> make -> make install 8. Restart apache 9. View phpinfo() Should work now.. On Wed, 2002-11-13 at 16:43, Lee P.
