Hello,
Generally (well, actually 100%) I just use whatever version of PHP is
included with a certain distro (Redhat pre-Fedora, Fedora Core, CentOS).
None of the versions I've used have come with PHP5 and I'd really like
to get with the times and use PHP5.
I know that Fedora Core 5 offers PHP 5.1.2 but I've heard some negative
things about it in general (FC5).
I've never compiled PHP myself so admittedly I'm a bit skeered... Is the
recommended path to just go with whatever distro I prefer and then
download PHP5 from php.net and install it myself?
Thanks,
Chris.
