Hello,

 

  My first upgrade ever....and, it is a central production box:-(

 

  Currently, am running 4.3.2, and would like to upgrade to php5. Could someone give me a very precise *step by step* instruction on: How I could accomplish that (this is a live production box with a 1000+ users). I really would love to keep downtime to a minimum. Here is a list of specs that might help you help me:

 

  - slackware 9.0.0

  - kernel 2.4.21

  - php 4.3.2

  - apache 1.3

  - mysql

  - modssl

  - Zend platform (will this break after the upgrade?)

 

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The upgrade went smooth. Anyway, in case anyone wants the info for similar situation here are the steps I took:

 

  1- in the new directory

            - configure (with all the options that I need for the server)

            - make

  2- stop apache (check the location of the server root from httpd.conf)

            - make install

            - copy the libphpX.so to the modules location found in step-2

  3- restart apache.
