PHP5 w/Complete Apache 2.0.52

I wanted to get Apache 2, so I downloaded and installed Complete Apache 2.0.52 because I'm too stupid to install it without a provided installer like they provide. Problem is I believe because it installed into different directories than the default, when I tried to install PHP 5.0.3 for Apache 2...well nothing happened.



Is there a way I can fix this so entropy's php build works with my apache 2 install?

    First off, "nothing happened" is ridiculously vague. No one can ever help you with that soft of information. Never, ever, use that in a problem description.



    Secondly, did you use --with-apxs2= in your configure statement pointing to the apxs2 that your Apache 2 is using?



    Third, PHP does not automatically change your httpd.conf file, you do know that you have to make the changes there that are in the readme files right? You read them, right?

    The reason I said Complete Apache 2.0.52 is because that is the proper name for that package...which contains doesn't require any configure statements.



    I also mentioned the entropy package because again...no editing files, installer package does all the work for you.



    I did try compiling it myself, but I continually get this error...

    checking for gcc... gcc

    checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables

    See `config.log' for more details.







    Edit: What I meant by nothing happens, is that PHP didn't work with apache. My php pages weren't being parsed. Maybe now you can see why I'm the 'Most Hated Member'

    That last message means you have to actually install the compiler before using it (developer tools).



    PS... to your edit... you did read my last post? no?

    Well, I don't want to say you are wrong...but you are. At least with PHP 4.x.x from entropy, I never had to change anything...well besides some things in the php.ini, but that was personal preference.



    Odd, I have the dev tools installed, but I guess I'll install it again just to be sure. ...maybe I should update them, it's just the original from 10.3

    Ok...reinstalled dev tools, and by the looks of 'locate gcc' i have 3.3 installed.



    You seem to know what you are talking about...so what do I do now, I still go the message.
