How to install Apache 2.2.3 & PHP 5.1.4 under Red hat linux

Login as root
Download the newest Apache Unixsource (.tar.gz) from httpd.apache.org
unpack with
Code:

tar xvfz httpd-2.2.3.tar.gz -C /root


In the new source folder
Code:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache \
   --enable-so   \
   --enable-cgi   \
   --enable-info   \
   --enable-rewrite   \
   --enable-speling   \
   --enable-usertrack   \
   --enable-deflate \
   --enable-ssl   \
   --enable-mime-magic


Code:

make


Code:

make install


Download/unpack PHP source from the PHP website, http://www.php.net/
Pick the latest from the 5.x series.

unpack it
Code:

tar xvfz php-5.1.4.tar.gz -C /root


In the new source folder
Code:

./configure \
   --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs \
   --with-mysql \
   --prefix=/usr/local/apache/php \
   --with-config-file-path=/usr/local/apache/php \
   --enable-force-cgi-redirect \
   --disable-cgi \
   --with-zlib \
   --with-gettext \
   --with-gdbm


You only need the --with-apxs2, and prefix lines. --with-mysql adds MySql, --with-config-file moves the php.ini file location, disable-cgi disables the CGI version, which is not needed if you use Apache modules. It also enables and installs the command line interface (CLI) version. --with-zlib allows use of gzip-type compression, --with-gettext is for internationalization, and --with-gdbm allows access to GDBM databases. For more information, type ./configure --help and see the "Installation" chapter in the PHP Manual, http://ww.php.net/docs.php

Code:

make


Code:

make install


Add these directives are in /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf (if already there, verify they are correct):
Code:

# Use for PHP 5.x:
LoadModule php5_module        modules/libphp5.so
AddHandler php5-script php
# (optional but useful for reading PHP source for debugging):
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source phps
 

# Add index.php to your DirectoryIndex line:
DirectoryIndex index.html index.php

Not sure why you post a Linux install on a Apache2 on windows forum.
Any specific reason ? Just curious.

Yes, of couse you can use RPM, and SUSE and some others have Apache with yum installer very easy, but if you want the newest version you have to compile it your self. On my fedora core==red hat, there was only PHP 5.0 and Apache 2.0.58. For development I need the newest versions. And if you run PHP 4 as cgi and PHP 5 as module you can use both to test your scripts!
