Problems updating PHP on Fedora Core 4


Recommended Posts

Hello,

I have an old machine for testing that is running Fedora Core 4 with Apache 2.0.54 and PHP 5.1.6. I recently needed to use the mbstring library but received a call to undefined function. I checked the phpinfo and it seems to be parsing a file mbstring.ini. In this file the only line reads: extension=mbstring.so. I found this file right into the Apache modules folder. I should mention that in the phpinfo there is no configure command '--enable-mbstring' or '--disable-mbstring'. Googling I followed several suggestions. First, I tried 'yum update php-mbstring'. It returns 'Nothing to do'. Then I compiled PHP 5.3.0 with --enable-mbstring. But Apache still loads the old version. How to make Apache load the new one? One strange observation is that 'make install' doesn't seem to be installing a file libphp5.so. The old file is not replaced. Now I am stuck. Please, give an advice.
