Installing php5 as CGI
Hello,Currently i am running PHP4.3.9 on a Apache 1.3.31 machine as a module.
Some of my customers want to test with PHP5 so i tried to install php5 as CGI since you can't run both PHP versions as a module.
I installed php5 in /ext/php5.
Some snapshots from my config
Code:
ScriptAlias /php5/ /ext/php5/bin/ <Directory /ext/php5/bin/> Options +ExecCGI AllowOverride none </Directory> AddType application/x-httpd-php-5 .php5 Action application/x-httpd-php-5 /php5/php
Code:
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
Code:
Premature end of script headers: /ext/php5/bin/php
When i run: /ext/php5/bin/php /var/www/phpinfo.php5 i get some nice output on my screen

That proves me that PHP5 is installed alright. Even if i am not root i can run the above mentioned command.
My settings in the bin dir
Code:
