I need to upgrade php 4 to php 5 on a server (fedora 1 core I think) and am trying to make sure I do this right on the first try as i have very little room for error (live server).
I haven't ever done this before, and I was reading that you need to manually use the ./configure --with-mysql to install mysql.
My question is, can i just copy the current configure command that is provided from my phpinfo() on my current version of php4 and use that to configure php5 before installation?

2. You may use VMware (or other VM software) to have an "offline" try prior doing it on a production server.
