ethereal1m Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Dear all, I have php 5.2 installed on my windows xp. Currently I'm following a tutorial in a book that requires php into a certain configuration. The book suggested to run a configuration script and install it using "make" command. I know this procedure works in Lynux or Unix but I'm not sure how can I do it on windows. I'm thinking about reconfiguring my php without re-installation. If I want my php to have the following configuration: # ./configure --with-apxs2 \ --with-gd --with-curl \ --with-mysql --with-pdo-mysql \ --with-jpeg-dir --with-png-dir \ --with-freetype-dir --with-zlib What is the easiest way to achieve this? Can I execute configure script on the existing installation, if I can, how? Or do I need to do each configuration manually? Best regards, ethereal1m Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/194215-is-it-possible-to-change-configuration-using-configure-script/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 The configure script will be a Linux shell script so no, it will not execute under windows. The options you are after can be enabled simply within your php.ini on windows.

ethereal1m Posted March 5, 2010 Author Share Posted March 5, 2010 ok, thanks, I understand with most of the configurations, except apxs2 config. I'm still not quite clear about this. Could you explain what does this do? How do I enable it in the configuration? thanks Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/194215-is-it-possible-to-change-configuration-using-configure-script/#findComment-1021830 Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 If your not sure what it is, how do you know you need it? Are you even using Apache?
