Re: how to get a php shell binary

PHP does not compile as a binary (CLI) and as a module at the same time. You will have to compile as binary first then compile again as a module. For compiling as a CLI do this: $ ./configure --prefix=/path/to/php $ make $ make install Move the files in the bin directory to somewhere like /usr/bin Then delete the file "config.cache" and run "make clean", next recompile with the options that you want for your apache module...make...make install... That is all to it...
