Php4 vs PHP5

[david techer]

Hi Fabio

I'm on a Debian like you.

I've built both mapscript 4.6.1 and php 5.0.5 from sources

For my tasks at my job, there is no problem using both.

I've installed php as CGI

Here is my PHP configure line:

./configure --enable-fastcgi --with-config-file=/usr/lib/cgi-bin/php.ini \
--with-gd=/usr --with-pdflib=/usr/local --with-png-dir=/usr \
--with-freetype-dir=/usr --with-zlib=/usr --with-pgsql \
--with-regex=system --enable-dbase --enable-dbx \
--with-jpeg-dir=/usr --enable-versioning --with-mysql \
--with-ming

For MapServer:

./configure --without-tiff --with-jpeg=/usr --with-png=/usr --with-threads --with-proj \ 
--with-postgis --with-pdf --with-mapscript --with-gdal=/usr/local/bin/gdal-config \
--with-gd=/usr --with-freetype=/usr --with-ogr --with-wmsclient --with-wfs --with-wfsclient \
--with-php=/home/david/src/PHP/php-5.0.5  --with-geos --with-ming

For a better use and a first try, I think it's not worth using 'Flash Support' (--with-ming) and
  'PDFLIB Support' (-with-pdflib) if U don't want to have it

However, here is what I did to have it

Info: 
- PDFLIB version is 5.0.3. It is not yet supported (but I need it for my job)
    New versions from 6... are available so U can use it.
    Download it then ./configure && make && make install
    

- Ming has been built from CVS. In ming/util/read.h, replace 'static int gIndent;' by ' 'static int gIndent;' in order to compil it
    then 
          make
          make install
  Remove everything from your-php-sources/ext/ming/
  Copy everything from your-ming-sources/php_ext/ to  your-php-sources/ext/ming/
  Return to your php-sources directory
  cd your-php-sources/
  buildconf --force  
  Then
      ./configure .... .... --with-ming --with-pdflib=/usr/local

Regards
