How to install both DSO and CGI mode?

[Anon]

Hi, all

I have installed php+SSL+MySQL+Apache sucessfully under RedHat6 linux. (http://www.devshed.com/Server_Side/PHP/SoothinglySeamless/print.html)

DSO module is fast, but suExec is much safe for virtual host to run php in cgi mode as user's uid, with a little slow. So I want users deside this themselves by add a .htaccess with "addtype..." inside.

The problem is that how to install php in both DSO mode and CGI mode? is that the CGI php module make php scripts as shell scripts?

I'm a new guy for linux, please tell me more. thnaks!

regards,
steeven

just do a ./configure but leave out any reference to a web server, like --with-apxs or --with-apache, This will build an executable called php. Just copy it to /www/cgi-bin and /usr/local/bin and you're done with the install. (note your web server probably lives in a different directory than /www.... change accordingly.
