[csw-users] PHP5 Install, but no new libphp5.so?

[Douglas S. Davis]

Hi,

Thanks, again, to all for the help with my basic Blastwave questions 
the other day.  Here are a couple more:


I'm trying to get Zen Cart working on our Solaris 10 web server which 
runs Apache 2.0.58.

When I run the Zen Cart installer, it gives me the following screen:

http://people.haverford.edu/auser/zen.jpg


It shows two important things: that MySQL support is not enabled, and 
that the PHP version is 5.1.4.


Working with some others here, we believe the cause of the MySQL 
support not being enabled is that PHP was installed previously 
without support for MySQL.

I had hoped to install a newer version of PHP with MySQL support, so 
I installed the php5 package from Blastwave.  The installation seemed 
to go fine, and I stopped and then restarted Apache, but when I look 
at that Zen Cart installer screen, it is still showing the old version of PHP.

What do I need to do to get Apache to use the latest install of PHP 
(the Blastwave install)?

The httpd.conf file is pointing to "modules/libphp5.so" and that file 
is the same as it was before I ran the Blastwave installer (the 
Blastwave install).  Should it be a different file?  Or would that 
file not need to be updated?  I did a "find" for libphp5.so, and 
there is only the one version of it.

Obviously, I only expect help with the Blastwave portion of this 
problem, but if anyone has thoughts on the other issues that are a 
part of it, feel free to weigh in.  :-)


Maybe I'll tell you about my ImageMagick problem sometime, since I 
installed that from Blastwave, too, and have some problems there, as 
well.  I'll save that for later, though.  :-)
