Other Help Topics :: PHP on DSL

Hello,

is it possible to install php (http://www.php.net) on DSL ?

Sven

Does DSL have a C/C++ compiler ?

Sven

Haven't checked out PHP for DSL in a while, but there was an extension somewhere in the repository for PHP for the monkey web server. Worked as far as I tested it, which admittedly wasn't very far.
And supposedly if you get XAMPP, it's Apache, PHP, MySQL etc all in one package, that extracts to a single dir in /opt, so you can back it up easily. But I haven't gotten around to trying this one yet.

Short answer, yes it's possible, though not sure if there's any functionalities that may not work "out of the box".

Hello,

I downloaded XAMPP and tried to install it, but I've been unable to extract the *.tar.gz to /opt.

I don't know why.

If I try to install the php5 extension for Monkey, it says, that there was no gcc or cc.

Sven

php1,

Xampp version 1.5 works fine for me on DSL version 1.5 I think that box has a hard drive install of DSL on it.

How are you running DSL?

Xampp gets extracted into the /opt/lampp directory.

Good luck
