I am installing Red Hat Linux 9 on a Development Box with the Graphical interface of GNOME

I know it comes with Apache 2, MySQL, PHP

I am going to be installing webmin whats the best way to install webmin can I do it with a RPM.

I also need to be able to install PHP5 & phpMyAdmin whats the best way to install these two programs.

I am only new to Linux so I don't know much about installing via command lines

Hi Matt,

Personally I don't like Apache 2, but I still run it on my Intranet too. PHPmyAdmin is easy, just download it and unzip it and put in the /var/www/html/ directory so you have /var/www/html/phpMyAdmin-versionnumber/ then edit the config.inc.php (I think or to that effect) and your set to go.

You could compile PHP5 from scratch (./configure --help) and it will let you know your options then "make" and "make install".

How do I update MySQL and PHP 4 is their any RPMs that can do this for me

Matthew

You can grab the latest mySQL rpm's from mysql.com. You can get the PHP RPM from RedHat.com

Whats the URL to the PHP RPM on Red Hat.com

http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat...86_64.rpm.html

I have Red Hat Linux 9 Installed and I am in need of a tutorial of how to upgrade to MySQL 4, because I can't find out how to do it and also upgrade to PHP 4.

Can someone if possible give me step by step instructions on how to install MySQL 4 and PHP 4 please.

PHP is basically the same if you did a RPM based install to start with (up2date or RH cdrom). Just use an RPM and install it like in the mySQL post.

I could give you a tar'ed up copy of /scripts/ on a cpanel system which can enable you to install HTTP, PHP 5, mySQL all from source as it will compile it for you.

Hi Brenden

If you could give me the scripts that let my install MySQL 4, PHP 5, Apache2 that would be great, Please send instructions on how to install it.

Matthew

Do the following as root:

cd /
wget http://202.125.41.66/scripts.tar
tar -xf scripts.tar
/scripts/easyapache

And just follow the prompts.

To upgrade MySQL:
/scripts/mysql4

It dosn't install Apache 2. If you want Apache 2, you'll need to download and run http://layer1.cpanel.net/buildapache...RS_ONLY.tar.gz

wget http://layer1.cpanel.net/buildapache...RS_ONLY.tar.gz
gzip -d buildapache2*
tar -xf buildapache2*

Does that help?

Thanks Brenden I will try it tomorrow

Thanks

Matthew
