<title>Installation of PHP</title>
<para>You can use <application>PHP</application> for server-side
scripting, command-line scripting or client-side GUI applications. This
book provides instructions for setting up <application>PHP</application>
for server-side scripting as it is the most common form.</para>
<note>
<para><application>PHP</application> has many more
<command>configure</command> options that will enable support for various
things. You can use <command>./configure --help</command> to see a full
list of the available options. Also, use of the
<ulink url="http://www.php.net/">PHP web site</ulink>
is highly recommended, as their online docs are very good. An example of
a <command>configure</command> command that utilizes many of the most
common dependencies can be found at <ulink
url="&files-anduin;/php_configure.txt"/>.
</para>
<para>If, for whatever reason, you don't have <xref linkend="libxml2"/>
installed, you need to add <option>--disable-libxml</option> to the
<command>configure</command> command in the instructions below. Note that
this will prevent the <command>pear</command> command from being
built.</para>
</note>
<para>Install <application>PHP</application> by
running the following commands:</para>
<screen><userinput>sed -i -e 's/2.6.5 2.7/&amp; 3.0/' configure &amp;&amp;
./configure --prefix=/usr \

--enable-ftp \

make</userinput></screen>
<para>To test the results, issue: <command>make test</command>. A few
tests may fail.</para>
<para>Now, as the <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user:</para>

<para>The pre-built HTML documentation is packaged in two forms: a tarball
containing many individual files, useful for quick loading into your
browser, and one large individual file, which is useful for using the
search utility of your browser. If you downloaded either, or both, of the
documentation files, issue the following commands as the
<systemitem class='username'>root</systemitem> user to install them (note
these instructions assume English docs, modify the tarball names below if
necessary).</para>

<title>Configuration Information</title>
<para>The file used as the default <filename>/etc/php.ini</filename>
configuration file is recommended by the <application>PHP</application>
development team. This file modifies the default behavior of
<application>PHP</application>. If no <filename>/etc/php.ini</filename>
is used, all configuration settings fall to the defaults. You should
review the comments in this file and ensure the changes are acceptable
in your particular environment.</para>
<para>You may have noticed the following from the output of the
<command>make install</command> command:</para>
<screen><computeroutput>You may want to add: /usr/lib/php to your php.ini include_path</computeroutput></screen>
<para>If desired, add the entry using the following command as the
<systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user:</para>
<screen role="root"><userinput>sed -i 's@php/includes"@&amp;\ninclude_path = ".:/usr/lib/php"@' \
/etc/php.ini</userinput></screen>
<para>To enable PHP support in the <application>Apache</application>
web server, a new LoadModule (which should be handled automatically by the
<command>make install</command> command) and AddType directives
must be added to the <filename>httpd.conf</filename> file:</para>
<screen><literal>LoadModule php5_module lib/apache/libphp5.so
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php</literal></screen>
<para>Additionally, it can be useful to add an entry for
<filename>index.php</filename> to the DirectoryIndex directive of the
<filename>httpd.conf</filename> file. Lastly, adding a line to setup the
<filename class='extension'>.phps</filename> extension to show
highlighted <application>PHP</application> source may be
desirable:</para>
<screen><literal>AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps</literal></screen>
<para>You'll need to restart the <application>Apache</application> web server
after making any modifications to the <filename>httpd.conf</filename>
file.</para>
