I can't find rpm to install mod_php4

[Anon]

I am a total newbie in the PHP world and I don't know much about UNIX but I'm trying to set up my Apache server to offer PHP and MySQL. I have installed RH Linux7.1 and Apache works great.

I have managed to get MySQL to work immediately after installing various rpms from the second cd of RH Linux 7.1.

I ONLY know how to install stuff from the rpm, and I don't know what it means to compile stuff and other similar concepts. I am going to try to learn (I have books and the internet and people like you!).

My immediate question is "is there an rpm that will install mod_php4?"

I will not ask how one goes about installing this mod from a binary file (or something) or even more complicated but way more flexible, from the source code. If you know a url I can point my browser to for help, that would be great.

I went ahead and installed all the PHP RPMs from the disk anyways. My problem was that I was looking for the RPM to install mod_4 and some RPM that was named something other than "mod_4" took care of that rather nicely.

Yes I do feel foolish, but PHP is finally running along with MySQL, so I feel kinda smart too.

You're a (probably newbie-) User of Linux and call yourself foolish? YOU'RE NOT! ...only rebooters are foolish... 🙂
HAVE FUN!
