Does a php - Forum work on a server that has os 9?

I know that a php forum requires mysql...



A friend has a server that runs os 9.

And he wants to host a php forum in it.



Should I just give him the link to <a href="http://www.php.net"; target="_blank">www.php.net</a> and <a href="http://www.mysql.com"; target="_blank">www.mysql.com</a> and ask him to find out himself whether it works or not?



I have unluckily personally no idea how php will work or behave on os 9 ... because the server I have dealed with runs Linux.



Does anybody have experiences of installing and running a php forum on os 9?



What else than mysql will he need?



I hope someone will know...

    I am 99.99% positive PHP and MySQL were never ported to OS 9 - it was never taken seriously as an a server operating system (and rightly so).



    In all honesty if your friend is running a server on OS 9, I would recommend migrating to OS X.
