What happened to Configure PHP & SuExec Popup?

I thought there might be a good reason this disappeared after rebuilding with EasyApache. But whatever upgrades happened from early august to early september, (I think two minor versions?), or maybe a bug or change in cPanel (as I checked EA change log) got rid of this automatic popup.

The reason I'm inquiring is I ended up having a horrible time latenight trying to troubleshoot on a live server after I thought everything was going well, but all that had to be done is just re-run the PHP/SuExec configuration after rebuilding. I searched on the net to find this fix at some random forum. So apparently, sometimes this needs to be run for everything to work properly: so why get rid of it coming up automatically?

On a related note, I had something change on my configuration without me doing it: when I went to edit last config, which I also had saved, MYSQLi had apparently been unchecked, when this was part of the last configuration? Another unexpected issue.

Platform (release tier) 11.44.1.18 EA 3.26.(whatever it was on Tuesday night) on CentOS 5.10 x86 64

I solved everything, just wanted to communicate my concerns as they might have/will affect others.

Thanks,

Great, thanks guys! I'll be upgrading to 11.46 soonish, so maybe it got in there…

thanks infopro, I'll try to be more clear next time, thanks for the half of your response that was to what I said correctly! I had a detailed response, but it got wiped… too tire to retype. I'll take your advice and rebuild with a "scratch" profile next time. Thanks!
