I have been successfuly running apache2 as a web server with php5 as a module. Recently I needed access to a database so I tried to upgrade my system by adding mysql4 as the database server. I had installed apache2 and php5 from the ports. Previously I would install php5-extensions to build the mysql module for php. After failing get the resulting php to recognize the mysql_ database calls in php I noticed that the php5-extensions no longer build the mysql extensions. I have tried various things. The most successful was to configure php with the --with-mysql option. However this did not completelty solve my problem. While database access was enabled from a php script, when I use the same codee in a web page to access the same database, my browser pops up a window asking if I want to save the file to disk or search for a program to deal with the file (suggestion Dreamweaver since it a .php file). Does anybody have the sequence of build commands for making a apache2 - php5 - mysql, a working web server environment? I am running 5.4 With thanks
