Talk:How to set up PHP under AOLserver

I've downloaded the aolserver src both directly and via the Debian source package, but cannot get php-5.1.1 to build:

sam@caveman:~/downloads/php.net/php-5.1.1$ ./configure --with-aolserver --with-aolserver-src=/home/sam/downloads/aolserver.org/aolserver-4.0.10
aolserver-4.0.10             aolserver-4.0.10-src.tar.gz
sam@caveman:~/downloads/php.net/php-5.1.1$ ./configure --with-aolserver --with-aolserver-src=/home/sam/downloads/aolserver.org/aolserver-4.0.10 --enable-shared

Perhaps I am simply an idiot (would not be the first time) but something "no longer works".

• I only ever tested this against PHP 4.3.7 -- I don't know what is required to make it work with PHP 5.1.1. If you figure it out, please update the page. -- Dossy 12:05, 7 December 2005 (EST)
