Problems installing PHP 5.3
Posted: Wed Aug 05, 2009 6:10 pm
Hi there,
I'm running xampp v1.7.1 on Windows XP, and want to update to PHP 5.3 so I can use late static binding.
I've downloaded PHP 5.3 and unzipped the files. I then copied them all into my xampp PHP directory "C:\xampp\php". However, this has not updated my installation - when I run a php script with phpinfo() in it, I am told that I still have 5.2.9 installed.
Very keen to get this working and cannot find any clear instructions online as to the update process.
I'd be really grateful if anyone could let me know what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks
