Installing PHP

[gnome_x]

Hi,

I have an old site writen in PHP3 which uses session_register, which was disabled from php 4.0.6.

I'm looking for someone who could help me install a version previous to php 4.0.6 on a 1&1 rootserver Start with Suse 8.1. I would be happy installing PHP3, PHP 4.0.5, 4.0.4 or 4.0.3. Which one you think it's best.

I have tried several times to compile it myself following instructions on the PHP documentation but I get compilation errors, when I do "MAKE".

I did uninstall PHP 4.2.2 that was installed by default on the server, with yast. So the server doesn't have any versions of php installed at all.

Thanks in advance,

gnome_x

P.S. Please feel free to answer in German Language.

Hi,

it would be better, to port your script from PHP3 code to PHP4 code, which works with PHP 4.3.2.

Thanx for the tip!

I'm already doing that, bit it takes it's time.
I need this as a temporary solution, until I'm done with porting, so the site will not be down during all the time. My client is getting very impatient, so I had to go for this temporary solution.

I would be very glad to share the porting work(and the money) with someone. If you are interested, please let me know.

Best Regards,

Hi,

sorry, but I've got too little time to spent for porting software. Porting PHP3 code to PHP4 ist quite easy.

I'm trying to install php3 and php4 as concurrently runing modules in apache. Installed I have already php4.2.2, and it's working fine. My server is a 1&1 start, with suse 8.1

When I configure php3 the very last rows I get are:

Code: Select all

./configure --with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs --enable-versioning --with-mysql --enable-track-vars

Code: Select all

creating dbase/Makefile
creating config.h
config.h is unchanged

Than when I make install I get the following error:

Does anyone know what this depend on, and how I could fix this?

Thanx in forward
