[wellylug] Can't get mod_php to install under Debian

[Phil Daintree]

I use Suse but have always had to compile php/apache from sources.

The problem with the rpms are that they never support the extensions I
wanted eg. I wanted to create pdf files dynamically using php - this is not
included in the rpm. I wanted php to have inbuilt ftp ability - not in the
rpm.

There are two options for compiling php you can build it right into apache
or you can have it as a module.
I am not sure of the pros and cons of either option but I have always built
it in due to trouble compiling the seperate module one time.

Download the source for apache 1.3.24 I think is the latest see
www.apache.org dont use apache 2.? php doesn't work with apache 2 yet - I am
assuming you are using php with apache ??

unzip and detar both cd to apache then run ./configure with no options
cd to php ./configure --with-apache= (your apache source directory)  and any
other options?????
make
make install

then back to apache source ./configure make make install

This is my sources.list:

deb http://debian.paradise.net.nz/debian stable main contrib non-free
deb http://debian.paradise.net.nz/debian-non-US stable/non-US main contrib
non-free

Have run apt-get update , but can't find mod_php which I desperately need to
get installed - can anyone offer me some help?
