Re: Zend install problem

["Bob P. Roche" <BRoche@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Another developer here interested in PHP, forwarded this on to me so we 
could check our system for all prereq's.

The following is taken from an IBM Redbook on Zend PHP.  Let me know if 
you want me to order PTF's.

Taking time to check a few things on your system can help you avoid common 
installation problems. We recommend the following activities to ensure 
that your system is ready for installing Zend Core for i5/OS.

Checking hardware prerequisites
At this time, there are no formal hardware requirements for running Zend 
Core for i5/OS. For the Zend Core product itself, not including software 
prerequisites, we recommend at least 200 MB of hard disk space.

The PHP environment provided by Zend Core for i5/OS itself is not highly 
processing-intensive or heavily constrained by system resources. Hardware 
resource requirements depend on the answers to the following questions:

How many PHP applications are you planning to run? How large and complex 
are they?
How many users are you planning to support? How intensive do you 
anticipate their usage to be (light or heavy)?
How processing-intensive are your PHP applications? Is there a high degree 
or low degree of dynamic content?
How much database or system object access do your PHP applications 
perform?

The higher the number of applications or files, users, processing, and 
resource access, the more hardware resources you need.

Checking software prerequisites
Before you install Zend Core for i5/OS, make sure all prerequisite 
software and fixes have been installed.

Checking licensed programs
Perform the following steps to check that all prerequisite licensed 
programs are installed on your system:

Sign on to the i5/OS system and run the GO LICPGM command.
On the Work with Licensed Programs display, type option 10 (Display 
installed licensed programs).
Press F11 twice to display the product options.
Ensure that the following software is installed:
