Coming from a Windows background, I am having difficulty understanding rpm's, compiling, and making packages. My hope is that someone will have the patience to take me through the steps, since the HowTo's are out of date and do not address my current Red Hat 7.2 environment.
With Red Hat 7.2 installed, Apache is installed along with PHP 4.0.6, however, Interbase is not installed Here is what I have done so far: I did a "rpm -qa | grep php" and found the rpm that was installed.(php-4.0.6-7). When I tried "rpm -e php-4.0.6-7", I received a list of php modules that were dependent on it. So, I "erased" each of those and finally did the "rpm -e php-4.0.6-7". Then I put php-4.0.6-7.src.rpm into /tmp and did a "rpm -i php-4.0.6-7.rpm" which put a tar'd file into /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES. I did "tar -xzvf /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/php-4.0.6pl1.tar.gz" which created a directory /tmp/php-4.0.6. I cd'd into that directory and did a ./configure --with-interbase=/opt/interbase --with-apache=/usr/include/apache After quite a period, I received a "Thank you for using PHP" message. I followed this with a "make" and a "make install". Now Apache does not respond to a "testphp.php" script that contains "phoinfo()" and it use to. What have I missed.........????
