Unix/HP-UX installs
This section contains notes and hints
specific to installing PHP on HP-UX systems. (Contributed

Note: These tips were written for PHP 4.0.4 and Apache
1.3.9.
-
You need gzip, download a binary distribution
from http://hpux.connect.org.uk/ftp/hpux/Gnu/gzip-1.2.4a/gzip-1.2.4a-sd-10.20.depot.Z
uncompress the file and install using swinstall.
-
You need gcc, download a binary distribution
from http://gatekeep.cs.utah.edu/ftp/hpux/Gnu/gcc-2.95.2/gcc-2.95.2-sd-10.20.depot.gz.
uncompress this file and install gcc using swinstall.
-
You need the GNU binutils, you can download
a binary distribution from http://hpux.connect.org.uk/ftp/hpux/Gnu/binutils-2.9.1/binutils-2.9.1-sd-10.20.depot.gz.
uncompress this file and install binutils using swinstall.
-
You now need bison, you can download a
binary distribution from http://hpux.connect.org.uk/ftp/hpux/Gnu/bison-1.28/bison-1.28-sd-10.20.depot.gz,
install as above.
-
You now need flex, you need to download
the source from one of the http://www.gnu.org mirrors.
It is in the non-gnu directory of the ftp site. Download
the file, gunzip, then tar -xvf it. Go into the newly
created flex directory and run ./configure, followed by
make, and then make install.
If you have errors here, it's probably
because gcc etc. are not in your PATH so add them to
your PATH.
-
Download the PHP and apache sources.
-
gunzip and tar -xvf them. We need to
hack a couple of files so that they can compile OK.
-
Firstly the configure file needs to
be hacked because it seems to lose track of the fact that
you are a hpux machine, there will be a better way of
doing this but a cheap and cheerful hack is to put lt_target=hpux10.20
on line 47286 of the configure script.
-
Next, the Apache GuessOS file needs
to be hacked. Under apache_1.3.9/src/helpers change line
89 from echo "hp${HPUXMACH}-hpux${HPUXVER}";
exit 0 to: echo "hp${HPUXMACH}-hp-hpux${HPUXVER}";
exit 0
-
You cannot install PHP as a shared
object under HP-UX so you must compile it as a static,
just follow the instructions at the Apache page.
-
PHP and Apache should have compiled
OK, but Apache won't start. you need to create a new user
for Apache, e.g. www, or apache. You then change lines
252 and 253 of the conf/httpd.conf in Apache so that instead
of
User nobody
Group nogroup
you have something like
User www
Group sys
This is because you can't run Apache as nobody under hp-ux.
Apache and PHP should then work.
