Upgrading php to 5.2.11 to fix 5.2.10 date bug

[smithsm]

The 5.2.10 php update in secuity update 1009-05 broke my php based websites. Since this is fixed in 5.2.11, I would like
to update PHP to 5.2.11. I have never done this for OS X Server. I can find online instructions for building php for os X
Client such as …

http://www.malisphoto.com/tips/php-on-os-x.html
http://diymacserver.com/installing-php/

But not to upgrade the apple version in os X Server. Its ok if a subsequent apple update clobbers it. I just
want to fix the problem because my site it useless and don’t know how long it will take apple to fix it.

Any suggestions on what’s different with the os x Server version of php and upgrading it.

I have OSX Leopard Server 10.5.8 v1.1 on PPC

I was able to put together a set of instructions that work for
upgrading to php 5.2.11 on OS X Server 10.5.8 v1.1

Here they are

I used a combination of the following:
Alexandrides (alex) Athanasios topic desk
os x server instructions (for php 5.2.10)
“Updating_PHP5_on_OS_X_Server_10_5_Leopard.rtf”
with 5.2.11 specific instructions here
http://www.malisphoto.com/tips/php-on-os-x.html
along with some help from here

some directory to put sources in

$ mkdir -p /install/source
$ cd /install/source

——– MySQL client
to see manual download go to http://www.opensource.apple.com/release/mac-os-x-1058/
search for mysql

$ curl -O http://www.opensource.apple.com/other/MySQL-45.binaries.tar.gz

$ tar xzpf MySQL-45.binaries.tar.gz
$ cd MySQL-45.binaries

I think the MySQL-45 contains both mysql 4 and mysql 5 not mysql 4.5

$ tar xzf MySQL-45.root.tar.gz

make sure /usr/include and /usr/lib exist if not then create them with
sudo mkdir -p /usr/include

sudo mkdir -p /usr/lib

$ sudo cp -r usr/include/mysql /usr/include/
$ sudo cp -r usr/lib/mysql /usr/lib/
$ sudo cp -r usr/bin/mysql_config /usr/bin/mysql_config

—– add libiconv in /usr/local/lib but leave Apple’s in /usr/lib

download
http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/libiconv/libiconv-1.13.1.tar.gz
copy to
/install/source

$ cd /usr/local

$ pwd
/usr/local
$ ls
bin

$ sudo mkdir -p src
$ sudo mkdir -p lib
$ ls
bin lib src
$ cd /usr/local/src

$ sudo tar -xvzpf /install/source/libiconv-1.13.1.tar.gz
$ cd /usr/local/src/libiconv-1.13.1

$ sudo -s

————— php

$ curl -O http://us2.php.net/distributions/php-5.2.11.tar.gz

$ tar xzpf php-5.2.11.tar.gz

$ cd /install/source/php-5.2.11

$ sh

$ CFLAGS=-DBIND_8_COMPAT
$ export CFLAGS

What is that for
http://php.net/manual/en/install.macosx.php
The -DBIND_8_COMPAT=1 gets you over a problem in the DNS files because MacOS X has definitions for Bind9 and PHP expects Bind8 definitions. -DEAPI is needed if you build it for Apache 1.3.31. -O3 enables the gcc optimizer.

But that if for an old version of PHP so maybe no longer needed but will keep it
