Re: [WEB400] RE: PHP on V5R3

Eric,

I had very few problems getting a PHP application running on V5R2M0 of 
our iSeries but they were all self inflicted and the biggest challenge 
was getting MySQL running, rather than PHP.  The instructions at the 
i5php.net site are excellent, as is the support.  I have a "demo" site 
running PHP and MySQL in PASE on my iSeries at www.i5commerce.com.  Not 
snappy, but I am running an entry level Model 800 with just 1Gb of 
memory.  It is also running 3 Tomcat instances and an RPG CGI application.

It really is pretty simple.  I'll be doing a PHP install for a customer 
of mine tomorrow, over the wire, who is also on V5R2M0.  I'll let know 
know how that goes.

Pete
