My Apache and PHP configure options

Basel · 05-19-2006, 04:06 AM

Did I miss any important configure options or used useless ones in the two commands shown below? I used the two commands to get Apache 2.2.0 and PHP 5.1.3 up and running under Fedora Core 2. I am planning to do the same thing on a virtual private server this week so I would appreciate it if you could give me some advice.

Code:

[basel@localhost httpd-2.2.0]$ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache2 \
> --enable-so --enable-rewrite --enable-speling --enable-ssl \
> --enable-unique-id --enable-usertrack --enable-deflat --enable-expires \
> --enable-auth-anon --enable-auth-dbm --enable-auth-digest \
> --enable-logio --enable-mime-magic --enable-modules=most \
> --enable-headers --enable-info --enable-v4-mapped && echo done-conf

Code:

[basel@localhost php-5.1.3]$ ./configure --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs \
> --enable-magic-quotes --disable-short-tags --with-openssl --with-zlib --with-bz2 \
> --enable-ftp --with-gd --enable-mbstring --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql \
> --with-mysqli=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config && echo done-conf

Hi,

Did you get any error using these configuration ?

If not than they are perfect

Using configuration depends on what you want to enable or disable for your application (in this case php and apache).

SO if you are not sure and you don't have any good reason, than better use precomplied package for installation.

I got some at the begining but every thing went fine after updating some development libraries.

I wish I could but finding new rpms for FC2 might take a long time.
