HI
You are welcome to try out PHP 5.2.6 from our webstack repository and
give us your valuable feedback
From your OpenSolaris 2008.05,
1. remove the existing apache/php glue, If in case, you have already
installed amp packages on your system
pfexec pkg uninstall SUNWapch22m-php5 -> remove the 5.2.4 version of
apache / php glue package
2. If you have not install any Apache / MySQL packages package, now
would be a good time
pfexec pkg install SUNWapch22 SUNWmysql5
3. and enable the SMF services by doing some thing like
pfexec /usr/sbin/svccfg import
/var/svc/manifest/network/http-apache22.xml
pfexec /usr/sbin/svccfg import
/var/svc/manifest/application/database/mysql.xml
pfexec /usr/sbin/svcadm enable http:apache22
pfexec /usr/sbin/svcadm enable mysql:version_50
4. finally , download php 5.2.6 binaries from web stack repository by
doing some thing like
pfexec pkg set-authority -O http://pkg.opensolaris.org/webstack webstack
pfexec pkg refresh
pfexec pkg install pkg://webstack/php526-devtest
With these, you should be able to get your php applications working out
of the box.
Hope this helps
