Web Development

Following yesterday news I downloaded PHP 5.3.0 and using the configure options from RC2 (which was already installed on the machine) I installed 5.3.0.


[root@caffeine php-5.3.0]# php -v
PHP 5.3.0 (cli) (built: Jul 1 2009 12:08:08)
Copyright (c) 1997-2009 The PHP Group

For those of you that do not want to dig through configure options... just use

[root@caffeine php-5.3.0RC2]# cat config.nice
#! /bin/sh
#
# Created by configure

'./configure' \
'--cache-file=../php-5.3.0RC2.cache' \
'--with-config-file-path=/etc' \
'--with-config-file-scan-dir=/etc/php.d' \
'--with-apxs2' \
...........................................


If you have previously compiled php.

Or you this is your first time to compile PHP you can look at the configure options you do have with:


[root@caffeine php-5.3.0RC2]# php -i | grep "Configure Command"
Configure Command => './configure' '--cache-file=../php-5.3.0.cache' '--with-config-file-path=/etc' '--with-config-file-scan-dir=/etc/php.d' '--with-apxs2'
.......................................................


Oh by the way, I forgot to mention that you're reading this from the machine where 5.3.0 was installed !!

Don't forget to have fun !
