Apache & php5, RHEL 4

[Margaret Doll]

I  am running  RH on a web server for several departments and   I   
needed php5 to run Drupal  on the  server.

I kept the php4 installed through  rpm on the system  because there  
were too many dependent  applications that depended upon that  
particullar package.

I then built  and installed php.5.2.0 in /usr/local/php5 using

./configure --with-apxs2=/usr/sbin/apxs --with-mysql

This  put libphp5.so in /usr/lib/httpd/modules so that I  could load  
the module  when I started httpd.

There were problems with starting httpd if  I  tried to configure php  
5 with other  options.
