RE: [cobalt-users] Installing PHP 4.0.6 with MSSQL support on a RaQ3

["J. Patrick Lanigan" <patl@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've gotten little further than you have on  my RaQ3, but I am having the
same problem with the S switch in apxs. Hopefully someone has the answer to
that, but one thing you need to do is symlink httpd into your /usr/bin :

# cd /usr/bin
# ln -s /usr/sbin/httpd httpd

Anyone got a workaround for apxs?

Thanks,
Patrick
