SIMPLEST possible php install on Mac OS 10.5

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hi all,

100% newbie here. I did some old html/webcatalog programming up till 
2000 (for those few who know what that was). I never touched a server 
as such. Now I'm back into coding and I am trying to get my local 
setup complete so I can develop here before I bother anyone else's 
machine. A friend set up apache, webmin, and mySQL here for me (on my 
Mac OS 10.5.4). I watched him but couldn't repeat for the life of me 
(all unix/open source is ALL new to me). I did search docs the best I 
could to learn how to install, but I only got this far:

Using the bundled PHP

As of Leopard the instructions here are out of date. To enable the 
bundled PHP in Leopard you need to edit /etc/apache2/httpd.conf. 
There is a line commented out that loads php5_module. Uncomment it 
and restart the web server. That should be all you need to do to get 
PHP support to work.
-------/ from the docs--------

If the anonymous poster meant to look in a dir called "etc/" on the 
root of the drive, then I don't see that here. I searched and found 
this file tho:
/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk/usr/include/apache2/http_config.h

I open it, but find no match for the string "php".

Hope this isn't too beginner even for the install list!

thanks,
-Govinda
