Mapscript module error with PHP 5.1

[Kenton Williams]

If you can, give HostGIS Linux a try.  The newly released HostGIS Linux 3.6 includes PHP5 with Apache 1.3.  The ISO is pretty small and it installs very rapidly.  Comes with PostgreSQL, PostGIS, MySQL, PHP, Python, and Mapserver preconfigured.  I
can get a working Mapserver serving install in less than 15 minutes!  Be advised - there is no GUI included as this is intended for servers.  If you need a GUI, check out the forums.

It's slackware, and now includes slackpkg and you can admin the computer remotely through webmin.  I've been fiddling with HostGIS Linux for several weeks and it's quite impressive if you can do without a GUI.

Good luck!
