I downloaded the nearly 4 meg zip file for PHP 4.1, I currently have 4.0 installed.
Do I just unzip the new one overtop the old one or do I do an uninstall?
How do you install PHP, just unzip, or is there an installer? I noticed the less than 1 meg installer, but that seems too small. MyEclipse :: View topic - Proper Upgrade / Installation of MyEclipse:: Post subject: manual install of 3.7.2 with 3.0M8 on win2k Pro . I was unable to upgrade. I had to download the install, uninstall 4.1M2 and install 4.1 http://www.myeclipseide.com/PNphpBB2-printview-t-183-start-90.htmlHOME |
Can someone explain the basic install procedure for Win2K and then how to go about an upgrade?
Sorry, half'heimers disease here! :)
Thanks!
There are 2 distro's of php one has an installer the other doesn't. The one that doesn't also comes with some extra goodies like source code too. The installer is limited in what it can configure so I always say that you're better off working with the manual install.
If you've already got php 4.0.x installed and working then the install is a snap.. First make a backup copy of your existing php folder (just in case). Then, if you're using the ISAPI extension on IIS or the SAPI module on Apache you'll need to stop the web server otherwise the sapi DLL's may not be able to be overwritten. At this point your are now safe to overwrite your existing files.

If you are using one of the sapi extensions you'll need to copy the php4ts.dll into the %SYSTEMROOT%System32 directory (overwriting the existing file) There's no additional server config required so you can restart your web server and be back in business, however they do recommend using the new php-ini-recommended.ini file instead of your existing php.ini.
Hope that helped.
