Re: RE: Installing PHP for command-line use

In order to not affect your current Apache (or whatever) setup, I find it best to not run "make install" after building -- instead, just manually copy the php binary (it's somewhere in the build tree, I forget where) into /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin. That way apache is left using the Apache module. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dr CHEUNG Ngai Tseung" <cheungnt@ha.org.hk> To: "webmaster" <webmaster@avrfreaks.net>; "phpinstall" <php-install@lists.php.net> Sent: Monday, April 22, 2002 10:30 PM Subject: [PHP-INST] RE: Installing PHP for command-line use > Build php without the -apxs command > > -----Original Message----- > From: webmaster [mailto:webmaster@avrfreaks.net] > Sent: Monday, 22 April 2002 17:33 > To: phpinstall > Subject: Installing PHP for command-line use > > > Hi all, > working with my website I have ofund it would be practical to be able to run > PHP from the command-line. > This would be nice when it comes to writing "at"-jobs etc, where now I have > to use PERL.
