Setting up Apache, PHP, MySQL on Suse

grapeape25 · 08-09-2006, 10:39 PM

I am trying to set up a server on my computer, I realise that Suse isn't the best choice for a server from all of different distrobutions available but I just want my own server to test scripts and what not.

So basically I set up Apache and I enabled PHP as a module and the PHP was working but I wanted MySQL so I installed that as well but since I installed PHP without MySQL there, MySQL was not enabled. I looked into the phpinfo() and some options passed through the configure command were:

Quote:

'--disable-session' '--without-mysql'

I don't know why it disabled sessions since by default they are supposed to be enabled but how can I re-configure PHP again with the options of my choice?

cd php-4.0
./configure --with-mysql=your_mysql_path

There is nothing wrong at all with running Suse as a server distro. Me, I'm a Debian guy, everybody has their preference; but I can honestly say that I don't believe there is a truly bad major distro out there.
