installing php5 with php4.3.x

[rajivlodha]

Hello Frendz.

i was wondering how i can install PHP5.0 with my existing php4.3.2

i have created a separate directory - C:\php5

and i have also created different php extensions - for php4.3.2, the file extension is .php while for php5, i created .php5

that is - index.php5, i did follow all the instructions to install php with IIS (6.0) as a CGI executable .. but nothing happens.

but php4.3.2 goes well.

for php4.3.2 - the php directory is C:\php and php.ini is in C:\php.

any suggestion.

i hope that what i am doing is not imposible yet i need to do some R&D ;-)

thank you for reading.

Regards
Rajiv

Hello trooper,

Yes i would like to know how you did it.

i would also like to know how do you separate the two php.ini files ?

and some more stuffs about the related php settings .. if any.

one more thing

i want to make the file extension - index.php5 to go to php5 and index.php to normal php.

if we make this happen, i hope we would help a lot of other fellows.


thanks again.
