I told you "Do not include apxs in the path". I was wrong. Just ran it myself like this and it worked:

./configure --with-mysql --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs

Sorry about that!

    yeah, i tried that and it worked
    perfectly

    but, theres somethign at the top of the screen that says

    --with-mysql=/path/to

    after the config was completed.
    so i tried running the ./configure with that added

    but i thought it was kept uner /usr/bin/ but i just the get the error

    Cannot Find header files under /usr/bin/

    unsure what to do, what did you do?

      Do you have mysql installed and running (you need the server and client packages installed)?

        yeah its installed, and running from what i see, i did

        Service Mysql start

        "a mysqld process already exists"

          then just run configure as ./configure --with-mysql --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs

          If you get no errors at the end of the configure, then your good to go.

            now i knever uninstalled the old rpm install of apache and the old rpm install of php, should i worry about those to? or is there something I must do?

                    okay, everythign is working, except when i use a php file i see the code not the php site, not sure whatsup, i checked everything and it all seems to in order..

                    -Ideal

                      Did you add a line to your httpd.conf that reads:

                      AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

                      and re-start the webserver after you did? (/usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl restart)

                        Yeah, I did a restart and everything, still nada, not sure whatsup?
                        .

                        -Ideal

                          run 'wget --server localhost' That will get your host headers. Does it say anything about PHP in the Server: line?

                            [root@ideal root]# wget --server localhost
                            --09:09:36-- http://localhost/

                            it says it there, i dont undestand why its only show the code, im putting the .php file in my htdocs folder, thats correct right?

                            -Ideal

                              Not sure why, but its working now, what i dont understand is it seems that if there is a cappital letter inside of the htdocs directory, it doesnt allow it, or says it "cannot be found" not sure whatsup with that.

                              -Ideal

                                its all up and running now, thanks for the help.
