Installing PHP

Locate your binary packages for PHP and install them (with all it dependencies). In this case, you should install at least this packages. Don't forget second and third.

• php-xxxx.rpm The main package. Probably needs php-common-xxx.php
• php-mysql-xxx.rpm PHP extension for handling MySQL databases
• mod_php-xxx.rpm PHP module for Apache web server

Example: in my case I have installed in Mandrake 9.0

• php-common-xxx.rpm
• php-xxx.rpm
• php-mysql-xxx.php
• mod_

and some other libraries and dependencies.
