Anyway, I did get it going. Thank you for the input. Here's the relevants bits of INSTALL, with line numbers to boot. % grep -C1 -n libphp4 php-4.2.0/INSTALL 102-$ cd ../apache_1.3.x 103:$ ./configure --prefix=/www --activate-module=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a 104: (The above line is correct! Yes, we know libphp4.a does not exist at this 105- stage. It isn't supposed to. It will be created.) -- 226- ./configure --prefix=/<path>/apache \ 227: --activate-module=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a 228- make -- 239- 240: AddModule modules/php4/libphp4.a 241- -- 248- 249: For Apache 1.2.x you will also have to look in the libphp4.module file, 250- which was copied to the src directory. The EXTRA_LIBS line in the Apache 251- Configuration file needs to be set to use the same libs as specified on 252: the LIBS line in libphp4.module. You also need to make sure to add 253- "-L." to the beginning of the EXTRA_LIBS line. -- 259- NOTE: You should not enclose the EXTRA_LIBS line in double-quotes, as it 260: is in the libphp4.module file. 261- 262: Also, look at the RULE_WANTHSREGEX setting in the libphp4.module file 263- and set the WANTHSREGEX directive accordingly in your Configuration file. -- 282- 283: LoadModule php4_module libexec/libphp4.so 284- 285: The actual path before the libphp4.so part might differ slightly. This 286- is likely fine. If you are paranoid you can examine the output from the 287: make install step to see where the libphp4.so file was actually put and 288- place the full path to this file on this LoadModule line. -- Eugene Lee eugene@fsck.net
