Re: [cobalt-users] How do I install PHP 4x on a RAQ3

[James Bond <jamesbond@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

telnet/SSH in as root :

vi /usr/sbin/apxs
replace    my $CFG_SBINDIR       = '/usr/bin';
with             my $CFG_SBINDIR       = '/usr/sbin';


tar xzf php-4.0.4pl1.tar.gz;
cd php-4.0.4pl1
./configure  --disable-posix --enable-bcmath --enable-calendar
--enable-memory-limit --enable-safe-mode --enable-ftp --enable-sockets
--with-apxs
make
make install
cp php.ini-dist /usr/local/lib/php.ini


This gives you a very basic PHP installation, without the
imap functions, any imaging functions, no MySQL functions.

In order to get these up and running as well.
* install the 4 MySQL packages available at http://www.mysql.com
    ROOT
    rpm -ivh MySQL*
    ADMIN
    mysqladmin -u root -p password "new_password" (old pass = empty)

*  Install the following graphic libraries

    rpm -ivh libpng*
    rpm -ivh freetype*
    rpm -ivh gd-*
    rpm -ivh gd-d*

* install the libc-client as followed
    
    gzip -d c-client*
    tar xvf c-client*
    cd imap*
    make slx
    cd c-client*
    cp c-client.a /usr/lib/libc-client.a
    cp rfc822.h /usr/include/
    cp mail.h /usr/include/
    cp /linkage.h /usr/include/

and now you can compile with the additional flags
--with-mysql
--with-gd
--with-imap

Some people also like to compile with PostgreSQL, but I do not recommend
this unless your customers really need a better database then MySQL. But
MySQL is already such a good database.


In order to secure you're PHP installation,
add the following line to each of your virtualsite in the httpd.conf file
php_admin_value open_basedir /home/sites/sitex:/tmp

This makes it impossible for customers to visit files outside of their
directory.
The /tmp is to allow your customers to perform uploads without any problem.

You can do this automatically for the next ones by
adding one line to the Vsite.pm perl module,
But I'll let you figure out this one by yourself :-))
