-===========================
-
-Installation
-------------
-
-1. Introduction
-
-The suPHP Apache module together with suPHP itself provides an easy way to
-run PHP scripts with different users on the same server.
-
-It provides security, because the PHP scripts are not run with the rights of
-the webserver's user.
-In addition to that you probably won't have to use PHP's "safe mode", which
-applies many restrictions on the scripts.
-
-Please be sure to have read the README file in this directory and both the
-README and the INSTALL file in the main directory of the suPHP distribution.
-
-
-2. The simple facts
-
-In this part, I'll give the most important information for people who know
-how to compile the Apache Server with additional modules.
-If you aren't familiar with doing this, you'll find a step-by-step guide in
-the third part of this manual.
-
-mod_suphp only consists of one file, called "mod_suphp.c".
-If the suphp binary is not in the default path (/usr/sbin/suphp) you'll have
-to modify the corresponding line in mod_suphp.c before adding it to your
-Apache sources with the "configure" script of Apache.
-
-The easiest way to install mod_suphp is to compile it as a dynamically
-loadable module (DSO). If your Apache was compiled with DSO support and
-"apxs" is either in your path or you specified the path to it when running
-"configure", mod_suphp will automatically be compiled when doing "make" and
-installed to your Apache server (when doing "make install").
-
-Information on how to configure mod_suphp can be found in the "CONFIG" file
-in this directory.
-
-Please note that mod_suphp was developped for Apache 1.3.2x and Apache
-2.0.x. It might not work with other version.
-
-suPHP was developped for Linux, perhaps it'll also work with some other
-*NIX-systems. I have heard that there is a suPHP port for FreeBSD, however
-as I do not have running FreeBSD on any system at the moment I cannot test
-which modifications have to be made to the current version to run it on
-suPHP. If you know, tell me and a will try to modify the GNU autoconf
-scripts to make decisions automatically.
-
-If you have tested it with another system and it works, please tell me.
-
-
-3. Step-by-step guide
-
-If you have already running Apache with mod_so (DSO-support), mod_suphp
-should have been installed to your Apache server automatically.
-
-It it is not working look for the two lines
- LoadModule suphp_module /usr/lib/httpd/mod_suphp.so
-and
- AddModule mod_suphp.c
-in your "httpd.conf".
-
-Sometimes "apxs" adds this lines at the wrong locations. In this case you
-will have to move them to the appropriate position (see the Apache
-documentation for details).
-
-To compile Apache from scratch with mod_suphp (statically) proceed with the
-following steps:
-
-If necessary change the path to the suPHP executable in "mod_suphp.c".
-
-Get the Apache sources from http://www.apache.org and unpack them.
-Now go into the newly created directory. And run "./configure --help" which
-will output some really useful information about the configure-script.
-
-Now run the configure script with the parameters that match your needs but
-add the option "--add-module=/path/to/mod_suphp.c".
-
-This will copy mod_suphp.c to the Apache sources and activate it.
-
-Now you can "make" Apache and install it using "make install".
-
-Please note that suPHP will probably not work if you also compile in mod_php.
-
-To use suPHP to parse PHP-Files the only thing you have to is to add a line
-like
-
-AddHandler x-httpd-php .php
-
-to your Apache configuration and to activate mod_suphp for the appropriate
-VHosts.
-
-You can turn mod_suphp on by adding the line
-
-suPHP_Engine on
-
-to your global Apache-configuration.
-This will activate mod_suphp for all VirtualHosts.
-
-Information about additional options can be found in the "CONFIG"-Readme.
-
-4. Additional information
-
-Please note, that mod_suphp in most cases will *NOT* work, when mod_php is
-installed and used in your Apache server because both use the same mime type
-"x-httpd-php". I have heard of users concurrently running both, but it is
-probably trivial to do so. Therefore I will not answer any questions on how
-to run both mod_php and mod_suphp concurrently.
