So many people are using some version of RedHat to run PHP with Apache
and MySQL. This combination is so popular that it is being referred to
as LAMP, an acronym. But in the php community why there isn't a
php.version.rpm recommended for a platform, say RHL 7.2? RedHat isn't
doing it, or isn't doing it any more for current versions (7.1, 7.2). 
(Well, the mod_php.version.rpm is no longer included in their package, 
therefore php does not work with apache any more. What is the other use 
for php? ). Everybody has to struggle through their own ways to compile 
and install the PHP package and try to make it work with Apache and 
MySQL or some other databases. Can we have a recommanded php.version.rpm 
package for up-to-date Linux platforms? (In reality, there are a few 
php.version.rpm around on the net. I tried them, they seem don't work on 
any of my three pentiums (60 MHz, 500 MHz, and 1.4 GHz) runing RHL 7.0, 
7.1, 7.2. Yes, I tried all 7.x versions on each and every machine I 
have, hoping to find one working. Not very smart move, just coping. 
Obviously, that doesn't work.

Well I am not skilled enough to make an xxxx.rpm package yet, but I am
sure there many who can do it. Now, my question is: What is the issue
for such a distribution? I believe it probably is not simply because
binary distrobutions don't have much flexibility. What is it. I am a
newbie, I admit. What is the best way to overcome the complexity in
compilation and installation for uncounted number of newbies. If it's
something I can aspire to I would try it.

This isn't a php question, but an Apache question. You're getting the
directory index listing because the default directory index in Apache is
.html and if apache doesn't find one it dumps the directory index itself.
You can configure apache in httpd.conf to look for other indexes with the
DirectoryIndex directive
i.e.

DirectoryIndex .html .php .php3

You can put the DirectoryIndex inside a VirtualHosts container so it only
takes effect for a certain site.

> and when I click on the index.php3 I get this error.
> Parse error: parse error in
/usr/local/www/htdocs/phpMyAdmin/config.inc.php3 on line 11

You need to edit the config.inc.php3 file and add the server name, username
and password.  Follow the instructions in the file INSTALL in the phpMyAdmin
directory.

> I was told that I did not need the php3 modules cuz the php4 modules would
do it.

Right, php4 works fine with phpMyAdmin, so you don't need to build & install
php3.

Hello.

I got the problem when I tryed to setup Apache server with PHP on my Sparc

computer with the Solaris8 operational system. The standard package

includes the Apache 1.3.9 version, which does not includes the PHP. Is there

any way to use the existent Apache server with PHP capability with the

minimal change of the standard configuration?

On the PHP WEB site I found information about Apache with PHP compilation,

but there is not any information about the problem which I got.

Sincerely yours

I´ve php4 installed in my Red Hat 7.2 linux server and I´m sure I have
everything properly installed (php - client, server, lib and apache)
according to the  manuals and  comments that I found in this site... the
problem is  that when I try to open a php3 extension page in the server, I
get the error

cannot load MySQL extension,
please check PHP Configuration.

I can load simple php3 files of the server but will not load a php3 with
mysql. I can run command line MySql w/o any problem. So I am presuming that
either MySql is not compiled with php3 or MySql is having problem loading
from the default specified path.
I need to create a simple test script with MySql in it, has anyone any
suggestion as to how I do this.

Thanks

Chandra
