How can I run php4 and php5 on same apache? I have apache 2 installed and working with php5 .. now I want to run both php4 and php5 with same apache...I also searched google but didnt find anything simple...all was very complicated..So, looking for your replies guys..
I'm sure if you tried hard enough - and were clever enough - you could probably figure out how to eat string beans through your nose, too. But I wouldn't recommend it.
STRONG SUGGESTION:
Configure your Apache server with PHP5 ... and leave it at that.
If you absolutely *must* have PHP4 co-located on the same machine, then build it into a *separate* version of Apache, and run it as a separate server (on a separate port, of course).
I'd agree that it's probably a very bad idea, though it's just a gut feeling from having used Linux for a while. paulsm4, if only for my benefit, can you elaborate on what exactly might go wrong? I'm interested.
