RE: [cobalt-users] MySQL, PHP AddType, and migration help please

[unixtech@xxxxxxxxx]

Thanks for the reply, I used the .pkg version after
verifying that PHP4 was already installed (I saw the issues
in the archives when this was not installed). I could always
go in and rip out MySQl and phpmyadmin if that would fix the
MySQL issue. I am still stumped on the php issue itself
after another sleepless night at the command line....I have
2 non-cobalt boxes that I have replicated the install on,
using tarballs and .gz files without aany issues.

If I do need to uninstall MySQL, etc. if anyone is aware of
any issues I need to square away first, please let me know.
