1AOLserver README ($Id$) 2 3To compile PHP 4.0 as a module for AOLserver, you need: 4 5- installed AOLserver 3.1 or later 6 (see the note below for AOLserver 3.0) 7 8NOTE: You should not use this module in production. PHP is not 100% stable 9 yet in threaded mode. To increase reliability enable the Global Lock 10 by removing #define NO_GLOBAL_LOCK in main/main.c. Also don't use 11 php_value as it will lead to races in a sub-system (use an ini file 12 instead). 13 14 151.) Configuring AOLserver 16 17Read doc/install.txt in the source distribution 18 19It usually boils down to changing the INST/PREFIX variable in 20include/Makefile.global and running make all install. 21 222.) Configuring PHP 23 24$ ./configure \ 25 --with-aolserver=/path/to/installed/aolserver \ 26 <other options> 27 28NOTE: If you are still using AOLserver 3.0, you need to retain the 29 AOLserver source code and pass another option to PHP: 30 31 --with-aolserver-src=/path/to/source/distribution 32 333.)
