Hello, [The contents of this email contain quite an annoying amount of output from the command line, but please note that I have deleted most of the unnecessary output and tried to comment the parts that I felt were necessary.]
I am curious as to what the difference will be if I choose to install PHP4 with MySQL functionality, using only the built-in MySQL support. If I specify the /path/to/mysql in my ./configure option --with-mysql, then I get the following output: localhost:~/tmp/apache_mod_php-6-2/php$ ./configure --with-xml --with-zlib --with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql creating cache ./config.cache ... ( for sake of space, most ./configure output omitted ) ...

I posted to this list earlier, asking for advice on making this 'libphp4.so' file, but it seems no one knew the answer. So, now I am wondering what the net effect would be of not specifying any directory argument to the '--with-mysql' configure option. In other words, I would do (note the change in the ./configure options): localhost:~/tmp/apache_mod_php-6-2/php$ ./configure --with-xml --with-zlib --with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs --with-mysql creating cache ./config.cache ...

If I just use this form of PHP (using built-in MySQL support), will I be able to re-compile the version with the appropriate /path/to/mysql at a later date? Will the PHP code that I write for this (built-in MySQL) version of PHP4 work in a later version of PHP4 where I have indeed specified a directory? Thanks to any who can help me -- and I apologize to those who are becoming annoyed with these questions! Once I get this up and running I will do my best to never bother anyone again! -- Erik --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
