I installed Red Hat Linux 7.1, including PHP and PHP/mySQL support, on a server at work. I have phpBB and phpmyadmin up and running, and have been experimenting with writing PHP code - great fun.
Now I would like to upgrade PHP from 4.04 pl1 to the current version. I would also like to add Oracle 7 support so I can write web-based reporting tools for end users.
But how do I do this? I downloaded the PHP rpms but I got a string of dependency errors. If I get the standard tar.gz and unzip/untar that, won't I be creating a lot of inconsistencies? People do this every day. I must be missing something obvious
The second part of my question is about oracle support. According to the PHP manual, I'm supposed to do something like:
Code: Select all
./configure --with-oracleIf I do a phpinfo() the configure command param looks like this:
Code: Select all
'./configure' '--prefix=/usr' '--with-config-file-path=/etc' '--disable-debug' '--enable-pic' '--enable-shared' '--enable-inline-optimization' '--with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs' '--with-exec-dir=/usr/bin' '--with-regex=system' '--with-gettext' '--with-gd' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr' '--with-png' '--with-zlib' '--with-db2' '--with-db3' '--with-gdbm' '--enable-debugger' '--enable-magic-quotes' '--enable-safe-mode' '--enable-sockets' '--enable-sysvsem' '--enable-sysvshm' '--enable-track-vars' '--enable-yp' '--enable-ftp' '--enable-wddx' '--without-mysql' '--without-oracle' '--without-oci8' '--with-xml'Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
