Hi! In my opinion you must compile the Apache and PHP to use with mSQL or another database like MySQL. For example, I'm using Slackware 7.0 now (I have used Slack 4.0 until the last week) with mSQL 2.0.10 and MySQL with PHP 3.0.11 and Apache 1.3.9. And everything is working fine. But not use the RPM or PHP and Apache "pre installed" for default. The following are the quick installation instructions for Apache Module Version. Regards, 0100,0100,0100Courier1. gunzip apache_1.3.x.tar.gz 2. tar xvf apache_1.3.x.tar 3. gunzip php-3.0.x.tar.gz 4. tar xvf php-3.0.x.tar 5. cd apache_1.3.x 6. ./configure --prefix=/www 7. cd ../php-3.0.x 8. ./configure --with-mysql --with- apache=../apache_1.3.x --enable-track-vars 9. make 10. make install 11. cd ../apache_1.3.x 12. ./configure --prefix=/www --activate- module=src/modules/php3/libphp3.a 13. make 14. make install Instead of this step you may prefer to simply copy the httpd binary overtop of your existing binary. Make sure you shut down your server first though. 15. cd ../php-3.0.x 16. cp php3.ini-dist /usr/local/lib/php3.ini You can edit /usr/local/lib/php3.ini file to set PHP options. If you prefer this file in another location, use --with- config-file=/path in step 8. 17. Edit your httpd.conf or srm.conf file and add: AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php3 You can choose any extension you wish here. .php3 is simply the one we suggest.Arial Fernando Gabriel Ranea fgranea@microbiologia.com.ar http://www.microbiologia.com.ar ------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, go to http://www.Hughes.com.au/extras/email/
