[PHP] Re: help - config setting directives in Apache config files not working

2002-02-04 Thread Mike Frazer

The flexibility of the dynamic module is great.  I recommend it.  I haven't
discovered an major advantages of the static modul myself, although I know
they've got to exist (either that or it's just a remnant of previous
versions, there for those who are afraid of change :) ).  Compile Apache
alone and then do the dynamic module, there are also fewer steps in doing
so.

Everyone's mileage will vary on this one, but I met compiling PHP as a 
DSO with a great deal of frustration in trying to get it to recognize 
MySQL's libraries, even though PHP provides its own.  Upon sharing this 
frustration, I took consolation with others who had "been there", and we 
all found salvation in installing the static mod_php (and Apache is 
still welcome to accept any other DSO).
