It is installed by default.

The latest Qube3 updates actually install a fairly current version ...
probably at least as current as the packagemaster version.

You'll probably want to enable PHP support for MySQL as well.  You'll need
to edit the config file;

/etc/httpd/php.ini

In this file you will find a section ...

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; Paths and Directories ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
include_path    =       ".:/usr/sausalito/ui/libPhp"

Make sure the extra ".:" is in there.

Further down you'll find a section ...

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; Dynamic Extensions ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; if you wish to have an extension loaded automaticly, use the
; following syntax:  extension=modulename.extension
; for example, on windows,
; extension=msql.dll
; or under UNIX,
; extension=msql.so
; Note that it should be the name of the module only, no directory
information 
; needs to go here.  Specify the location of the extension with the
extension_dir directive above.


;UNIX Extensions
extension=pgsql.so
extension=mysql.so
extension=imap.so

Ensure that the last 3 lines above are not commented out.

You should then create a phpinfo() test page to confirm that php is
happening and support for MySQL is enabled.

Download and install phpMyAdmin to simplify your management of MySQL.  Its
NOT available as a Cobalt install package.

http://phpmyadmin.sourceforge.net/

Its available as a tar archive which just needs to be uncompressed in a
convenient location within;

/home/groups/home/web/

And the some minor changes made to the config file.

Cheers,  Malcolm
