ProgrammingThis forum is for all programming questions.
The question does not have to be directly related to Linux and any language is fair game.

It is not difficult to install. What linux operating system do you use? RedHat/Mandrake/SuSe
It is a good idea to put it in the "Distribution" section in your profile so that people can direct their help easier (It appears to the left of every message)
That is the version of apache (web server) and php.
It is the actual version of linux not the applications that run on it. At the top of the console screen (if you use a GUI then press "Ctrl + Alt + F2") you may see something like:
Red Hat Linux release 8.0 (Psyche)
Kernel 2.4.18-14 on an i686
The first line tells me that I am using "Red Hat 8.0"
You usually see this information when initiating a telnet session too.
If you are using a GUI then press "Ctrl + Alt + F7" to get back to it.
Distribution: Redhat Linux 7.0 Apache/1.3.27 PHP Version 4.3.1 server api Apache

Here is exactly how it looks.

Okay. I guess it means I need to install some more packages.
I looked at some and there are so many different versions.
How do you decide which one to use?
