Complete PHP - 4.3.9

I agree with MacDog... I have been waiting for the newer version but in the manual, it says you can update Complete PHP but I am no expert or a experienced user.. from the install manual;
Building Your Own PHP Update Complete PHP provides all the necessary components to build your own PHP updates against the libraries and headers that are installed. This is generally only recommended for experienced users. The following is the list of arguments passed to "configure" when building Complete PHP: --prefix=/Library/PHP4 --with-apxs2=/Library/Apache2/bin/apxs --with-openssl=/usr --with-zlib=/usr --enable-calendar --enable-shared (this is partial paste but you can find it on page 5 in the manual.. )

So does anyone know the step to provide us to update Complete PHP either to 4.3.10 or 5.0.3

Thanks!

It would have been nice if I didn't have to go learn about this the hard way. Still, it seemed a lot better than having to compile everything else on my own. I would still recommend it for a quick way to get up and running.

If anyone is experiencing the slowness, can you please post about it on our forums: http://www.serverlogistics.com/forums/ We are trying to get to the bottom of this issue. Release 2 seemed to fix the problem on our test machines, so we assumed it would work for others. One thing to try is to do a fresh install of Complete PHP, i.e. remove /Library/PHP /Library/Receipts/PHP4.pkg, and the module file, and reinstall the package.

Not quite sure why, but Complete PHP with Complete Apache is very slow on the first visit to a page. Some pre-cache compile time is understandable, but why would it take 5-8 seconds on a PHP page that took about 2 seconds on a stock Panther install? Repairing disk permissions didn't seem to help.

BTW, installation was indeed a snap - except for one manual change required to the Apache config. Yes, it adds the loadmodule stuff, but it doesn't update the DirectoryIndex line to include index.php. Not a problem if you know what you're doing, but if you don't...

Thanks for making this installer available to us! Works like a charm.
