PHP install

[Geoff Blake]

I am trying to install a LAMP system and have so far installed Linux,
Apache, MySQL all of which appear to be working. The instructions I have to
install PHP include the following line
../configure --with-apxs= PathToFile/apxs -- with-mysql

What is apxs?

I have searched my system and dont appear to have any files by that
name.( find -iname apxs*) - I assume it should be installed with apache. Can
I install it seperately?

Which linux are you installing most packages has PHP in it already. If you
can get back to the installer through your system configuration (in Suse
it's YaST and I think in Mandrake it is Install Packages) you should be ale
to install the PHP libraries (and MySQL too) and configure in one fell
swoop.

Hi,

APXS is used to compile php as an apache module.
If it is not installed you can install the httpd(2)-devel rpm which contains
APXS.

Bye,

Thanks

Using Fedora3
Ended up reinstalling Apache from a new download - all OK now
