not sure but check out Nick\'s post in http://support.cpanel.net/new/viewthread.php?tid=101
note: that would only work if your existing php was compiled with --with-apxs and not --with-apache
check your phpinfo

..well my server came with PHP with mysql support and believe nearly all dedicated servers do... post your phpinfo url
also have you got the latest cpanel/whm version installed? apparently from http://support.cpanel.net/new/viewthread.php?tid=252 to recompile PHP you run buildapache.sea from layer1.cpanel.net ( i assume that\'s for php compiled --with-apache since you need to recompile apache as well as opposed to --with-apxs which you can recompile php without the need for recompiling apache using Nick\'s script here http://support.cpanel.net/new/viewthread.php?tid=101 )
shame i don\'t have a spare private server with whm/cpanel installed so i can mess about with everything i figure out all the scripts related to whm/cpanel

Oh my cgi vesion definitely does not have mysql with it. I just wanted to check to see if that was the standard for cgi install. Venturesonline claims that it is and that is why they want to charge me to fix it but i was coming here to check if that is the case and why WHM/Cpanel would not put mysql support into the cgi version.

[quote:2690007870]yes - its deffinately standard practice for the binary of a cpanel php install to have mysql support. the CGI has everything that the module has
[Edited on 10/12/01 by nbrown] [/quote:2690007870] maybe cpanel team should clearly outline what goes on during and after a whm/cpanel installation? a so called checklist outlining what should be installed after whm/cpanel installation for the end user to compare against so that they can see if whm/cpanel was installed correctly?
something along the lines,
\"If whm/cpanel are installed correctly, the following will be installed etc... you can check this by locating such and such in such directory etc etc...? \"

every server that i\'ve come across the cgi php version used mentioned in an earlier post here, which is located @ /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/bin/php
you can login to your server and type php -i to get the output of a phpinfo file , you\'ll see that its php version 4.0.4pl1 without mysql support compiled in.
The phpinfo file will show php 4.0.6 which is compiled in with apache when we setup the servers.

The PHP binary is usually @ /usr/local/bin/php or /usr/bin/php
And to compile PHP without mysql you actually have to tell it not too - as mysql is included by default even if you don\'t specify --with-mysql
It\'s a relatively easy task to install PHP (Binary and Module), the heardest part is getting all the file together that you need.

Yep - the last 2 installs of WHM/CP I did recently all had the binary installed by default in /usr/bin/php which was done by cpanel as it wasnt there before I installed it.
Its been the same on every single server Ive setup.
