Hi, sorry I'm kind of new to using Direct Admin and SSH but I was wondering if someone could show me a way that worked for them to update PHP4 to PHP5 and also install Python 2.4. I've found a few ways on google but I keep getting errors at the end of them. My server is Unix by the way.

EDIT: I believe I have found out how to install Python and get around that error. I still Need help with PHP though. So if someone could show me the SSH commands to update to php 5.2.0 from 4.4.4 that would be great. Thanks.

I assume you were using "./build php_ap2" while php_ap2 is only for Apache 2.

and I highly doubt that your server was not crashed by the the build script. The script just could not find configure.php_ap2, I dont thk this would crash a server.
