Recompiling PHP has no effect!

linusaurus

On Redhat 8, PHP is running.
I DLed PHP 4.3, configured it with new options,
ran make, stopped apache (apache2), ran make install, and restarted apache again.

PHP is now running exactly as is was before recompilation. The new options don't work, and phpinfo looks exactly as it did previously.

Whats going on? Why is recompiling PHP having no effect whatsoever?

Was it installed into the same place as your previous version?

Well, redhat was installed with php included.
After this I downloaded the newest version of PHP, and installed it using the tar xzvf, ./configure --lotsa options, make make install. Would it work if the first version of php was 'rpm -e'ed? And better yet, is there a way to make the RPM version of php4 include spceified options?
