Re: installing php on redhat

In RedHat 8.0, you can use RPM to remove the PHP coming with it. Then download the PHP source, configure ti with something like: ./configure --with-apxs2=/path/to/apxs --prefix=/path/to/php make make install Then restart Apache. It will warn you that php module has already been loaded and skip. Just ignore it or you can remove the line "load_module ... php4" in httpd.conf, everything will be OK. Of course, you need to install httpd-devel package to have apxs. --- M A <mmat1974@hotmail.com> wrote: > > > hi, > > well, i downloaded PHP 4.2 and i am using redhat > 8.0. > my question is how could i remove "uninstall" the > php that came with the > redhat? and when i install php again where should i > install it to "path"? > and would my httpd recognize it or do i have to > change something in > httpd.conf? > > Thanks > > _________________________________________________________________ > Help STOP SPAM: Try the new MSN 8 and get 2 months > FREE* > http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail > > > -- > PHP Install Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php > __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
