I'm using Suse 6.4 too, it's a great distro :-) First use ./configure --with-mysql --with-apxs When you make install, the lines added to httpd.conf are added in an <If Define> section which prevents php from loading. remove the PHP lines outside of the <if define> save the file and restart apache. -- Meir Kriheli MKsoft computer systems "There's someone in my head but it's not me" - Pink Floyd
