In your httpd.conf : # setting of php4 ( compat with php3 ) AddType application/x-httpd-php .php3 .php AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps or when you compile and install php4 : ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- USING PHP 3 AND PHP 4 AS CONCURRENT APACHE MODULES Recent operating systems provide the ability to perform versioning and scoping. This features make it possible to let PHP 3 and PHP 4 run as concurrent modules in one Apache server. This feature is known to work on the following platforms: - Linux with recent binutils (binutils 2.9.1.0.25 tested) - Solaris 2.5 or better - FreeBSD (3.2, 4.0 tested) - IRIX64 6.5 To enable it, configure PHP 3 and PHP 4 to use APXS (--with-apxs) and the necessary link extensions (--enable-versioning). Otherwise, all standard installations instructions apply. For example: $ ./configure \ --with-apxs=/apache/bin/apxs \ --enable-versioning \ --with-mysql \ --enable-track-vars ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INSTALL ( documentation of php4 ) -- PHP Install Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
