Upgrade from 4.0.4 to 4.0.6

[Anon]

I have a RedHat 7 machine with PHP 4.0.4 running just fine, but I want to upgrade it to 4.0.6 to eliminate some of the bugs. Is the procedure for updating any differnet from the procedure for installing new 4.0.6?

1. gunzip apache_1.3.x.tar.gz

2. tar xvf apache_1.3.x.tar

3. gunzip php-x.x.x.tar.gz

4. tar xvf php-x.x.x.tar

5. cd apache_1.3.x

6. ./configure --prefix=/www

7. cd ../php-x.x.x

8. ./configure --with-mysql --with-apache=../apache_1.3.x --enable-track-vars

9. make

10. make install

11. cd ../apache_1.3.x

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

13. make

14. make install

15. cd ../php-x.x.x

16. cp php.ini-dist /usr/local/lib/php.ini

17. Edit your httpd.conf or srm.conf file and add:
    AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

18. Use your normal procedure for restarting the Apache server. (You must stop and restart the server, not just cause the server to reload by use a HUP or USR1 signal.)

I'd rather not have to reinstall Apache if I don't have to.

This installation builds php INTO apache, so you must reinstall apache to get it to work.
You can also install PHP as a DSO for apache. Check the manual for more info on that.
