Can I upgrade to PHP5 (from 4.2.2) on Redhat 9 ?
Don't want to go to the trouble of upgrading the whole OS. But I do need PHP5 with a version of Mysql that will work with it as well.
Can anyone recommend a distro and give me the steps? Don't have any critical databases. |
There is not a single distro option for what you want to do. What you need is:
1- Linux 2- Apache Web Server 3- MySQL database server 4- PHP 5 This combination is very popular and widely installed. Linux Apache MySQL PHP = LAMP Google installing a LAMP server . There are tons of documents. Obviously you will need to start with installing the OS then go from there. |
Thanks for this advice. Having looked at some of the information you pointed me at, I have decided to start with a fresh PC and install CentOS 5 from scratch. This seems to come with all the systems I need.
