take a look at the configure line in the output of your phpinfo() (the third entry in the list) script. Notice the gazillion configure options? There are some options in there that cause a special installation of php. But you're basically right, php's installation usually finds the correct place to put its self, mostly because apaches apxs script tell it where to put the library. From my experience RH seems to try its hardest to keep you from compiling your own source code. Conclusion: RPM's to source upgrade doesn't work very well. But I think you've already have seen that :) Curt -- First, let me assure you that this is not one of those shady pyramid schemes you've been hearing about. No, sir.
