RE: [PHP-INST] PHP install problem, engine not parsing php files

I am trying to do the install using the 'Static' method What I really don't understand is why after the attempted configure, make, and make install nothing shows up in /usr/bin/php and I can't use php from the command line it's like nothing gets installed, I wipe config.status too before I try to re-install -----Original Message----- From: John Coder [mailto:jcoder@insightbb.com] Sent: Tuesday, October 22, 2002 1:40 PM To: php-install@lists.php.net Subject: Re: [PHP-INST] PHP install problem, engine not parsing php files On Mon, 2002-10-21 at 22:45, M.

It doesn't say anything about doing this in > the INSTALL file? if I remeber correctly you need apache with mod.so also configured if you ar doing it as a dynamic library. siince the response to you doing httpd -l doesn't say anything about it being there that is probably the culprit.
