is it possible to change configuration using "configure" script

[ethereal1m]

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,

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.

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

If your not sure what it is, how do you know you need it? Are you even using Apache? See http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/programs/apxs.html
