PHP failed to Install

[tsj5j]

Right from the start I already had php missing.

In the DA control panel there were many "cannot find file: /usr/local/bin/php".

So I used customapache to rebuild php with command ./build php.

I got this error :

*** There was an error while trying to configure php. Check the configure.php file

The configure.php had the option --with-mysql specified to the directory /usr.
The directory /usr/local/mysql did not exist.

HOWEVER, MySQL was running just fine.

I also tried reinstalling DA to no avail.

I'm running Fedora Core 6 on a Xen VPS.

Try reinstalling everything in customapache; look here for more information. If that doesn't help, check here to see if you've got php set up properly for customapache to install.

If you've got any kind of php packages installed by your OS you may have to uninstall them before customapache will properly install php.
