Adding PHP to Apache2 when Configuring

[Kilo]

Hi all,

I'm having a bit of an unforseen issue upgrading from Apache1.3x to Apache 2 with PHP. When I attempt to configure Apache using the command I always used to:

./configure --activate-module=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a

I get:

configure: error: unrecognized option: --activate-module=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a
Try `./configure --help' for more information.

The help doesn't list --activate-module as an option! I can't find any files with 'php' in their name in the httpd2 folder either. Yet if I continue without this option, I can't get php to work.

Any ideas?

TIA,

Kilo.

--activate-module? where'd you get that from?

probably the easiest way is to compile apache with --enable-so, then run php configure --with-apxs2=[apache2bindir]/apxs

I used to use ./configure --activate-module=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a with Apache 1, it's what it says in the php manual...
