Re: [users@httpd] Apache and PHP

Hey guys, here's an analogy concerning Php and MP. You can go to a store, and you have $100 US to buy something to help you hammer nails. The logical choice is that you should buy a hammer right? It does what you need it to, and the shallow learning curve is nice. But, on the way to the hammer section, you see this multi-purpose tool that can not only hammer the nail for you, but it can also buy the nail, hold the nail in the wood, and then make lemonade for you. Now, you go buy the multi-purpose tool, bring it home, and then realize that it doesn't do the one job that you wanted it for, hammering, as well as a hammer would.

This is how I felt with Perl. It did so many things that I felt that it just couldn't concentrate one one thing enough, web applications. So, I found myself at php.net one day and fell in love with the trusty hammer.

Thanks very much for your reply.  I read the document you referred me to
and it seems to me that it is for Apache 1 and mod_perl 1.  We are
running apache 2 and mod_perl 2 and not all of the instructions are
applicable.
Do you have any idea how to do the installation of all these components
using apache 2 and mod_perl 2?
Thanks for any information.
