[Rejean Proulx]

I am having trouble with my current release of PHP.  I need PHP 4.2.0 but I
can't find a php package on Debian. I suspect I'll have to go to the
unstable distribution for this but I can't find the package.  Is PHP part of
another package?

Hi, try installing the php4 package.
Also to use Drupal you'll need a couple of other libraries, but I don't know what they are.

Re: [drupal-support] Re: Error On Every Screen

[Geoff Shang]

Hi:

There is PHP v4 in the stable release, but it's version 4.1.2.  It's in
the php4 package.  You can search for packages by using the apt-cache
command, assuming you have apt configured and updated.  Type:

apt-cache search <string to search for>

Note that this searches available packages, not packages you have
installed.

You can then use:

apt-cache show <packagename>

To show you all the details of a given package, and

apt-get install <package name>

to install it.

I just checked on some systems I have access to that run less stable
releases.  The version in testing (Sarge) is the same as the one in stable
(Woody).  The version in unstable is 4.3.3 (the most recent 4.x version
last time I looked on php.net).  Note though that it's likely you'll have
to upgrade your entire distribution to unstable if you go the package route
of getting something greater than 4.2.  Unless you want to live on the
bleeding edge, I recommend against this.

If you simply must have a version of PHP greater than 4.2 and you don't
want to move to unstable, I'd seriously consider compiling it from source.
I've not done this, but it may ultimately prove to be less headache than
moving to unstable.  I compiled python the other day from source and it was
a walk in the park.

Geoff.

[Tom Moore]

To add what Geoff posted:

You may be able to go download the source package for the program and as long as you have all the packages that are needed to compile it you can in some cases install a newer version of a package from unstable on to your system that runs stable if you really needed this.

... here is a reference link for PHP which will give you info on the latest 
release
http://www.php.net
You should be able to find a PHP rpm on the Redhat although I'm not sure 
what version it is.

Re: [drupal-support] Re: Error On Every Screen

[Rejean Proulx]

Well, I took a chance and downloaded php4 from unstable.  It brought down
about 15 packages.  It got a little tense, but my machine works better than
it ever did.  I got rid of the errors.  I didn't install drupal from Debian.
It is easy to do so I brought it down from the drupal site itself.  Drupal
is really an application that you just put in a directory.

I seem to remember the package being called php4 but I'm probably 
wrong.
