[mapserver-users] PHP 4.1.1 and php-mapscript?

[Daniel Morissette]

John, and all,

PHP MapScript in MapServer 3.5 (release version) works only with
PHP4.0.6

With respect to PHP 4.1.1, there have been some changes in the PHP core
that broke php_mapscript.  There is an *EXPERIMENTAL* version of
MapScript for PHP4.1.1 in the MapServer CVS, but it's not fully tested
yet... we just know that it compiles and works with simple apps (We
created a rel-3-5-php411 CVS branch for it in the mapscript/php3
directory.  To get to it, you have to:
  $ cvs checkout mapserver
  $ cd mapserver/mapscript/php3  
  $ cvs update -r rel-3-5-php411

Once again, this is just experimental and there are still issues to be
resolved, so if you're looking for a stable server then use PHP4.0.6
configured as a CGI.

  Don't put for tomorrow what you can do today, because if 
      you enjoy it today you can do it again tomorrow.
