Linux or windows? What distro or version?

Have you RTFM on PHP installation?

you can't run both, btw so php5 will replace php4.

Wrong. You can run both on the same webserver (you just have to set
different handlers for different virtualhosts or file extensions).

OK, it might be a bit stupid to do so, but it's possible nonetheless.

On a single development server, having the possibility to run something
both as PHP4 & PHP5 is indeed a plus. Not for production indeed.

Actually, you can, but it's not easy. Run one as a module and the other
as a CGI. Then you have to use different extensions on your files to
tell Apache which one to invoke.

I have vague memories of the default Apache server that came with Mandrake
being patched to run both PHP 4 *and* PHP 5 as modules when PHP 5 first
came out. I doubt it still is though.
