newbie01.php Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Hi all, I need to be able to test Apache with PHP4 and PHP5 and multiple versions of MySQL. Can anyone please confirm that in this case, I should be installing several combination of the Apache+PHP+MySQL install, i.e. one for PHP4+MySQL4 and one for PHP5+MySQL5? Any advise will be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 You would only need to install the versions that you need. Apache is capable of being configured to server several versions of php at the same time, and mysql can easily be setup to listen on non-default ports. Hence you can have two instances side by side. The main issue is that your not likely to be able to use any package manager to handle the installs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simn_stv Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 just download your versions of mysql (http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/) and configure them to different ports...should do the trick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
