Why are you trying to find a .so file? That's a shared library object? Are you looking for the executable binary? That would only be available if you compiled it in that manner - not the default. How what this installd? Via RPM?

I downloaded it to the server box then installed it
the php readme file says

##########################################################
14. Edit your httpd.conf to load the PHP module. The path on the right hand
side of the LoadModule statement must point to the path of the PHP
module on your system. The make install from above may have already
added this for you, but be sure to check.

For PHP 4:

LoadModule php4_module libexec/libphp4.so

For PHP 5:

LoadModule php5_module libexec/libphp5.so
########################################################


but cant find the libphp5.so there for apache wont run with php5


Thanks

David

What parameters did you pass to the configure script? Unless you specifically tell it to, configure will not set up the makefile to create an Apache module.

erm ./configure --prefix=/

--disable-pear --disable-libxml

That won't do it.

On my system, when I run:

./configure --help | less

I get, in part:

[tt]--with-apxs2[=FILE] EXPERIMENTAL: Build shared Apache 2.0 module. FILE is the optional
pathname to the Apache apxs tool; defaults to apxs.

--with-apache[=DIR] Build Apache 1.x module. DIR is the top-level Apache
build directory, defaults to /usr/local/apache.[/tt]

"--include-module" doesn't appear in the help output, nor does the string "include-module" appear anywhere within the configure script.

Why don't you take a look at the Apache toolbox project? Might solve a number of issues that I can forecast might bite you in the butt on other matters.
