How to install php-bc-math ?

[Kai-Kai]

Hello,
sorry for my poor english, but I'm not english natively speaking. I'll try to do my best to be understood.

When I tried to install Zabbix on my server (Sun Solaris 10), I've a problem with php from Sunfreeware.com. It doesn't include bc maths (needed to complete the web installation).
I would like to avoid replacing my current php by a one compiled by myself. I can compile php5 in another directory to create all modules if needed.

But, how can I install php bc maths in my current php installation ?
Can somebody help me ?

If you need more details, feel free to ask.
Thanks in advance.

Try using the Sun Web Stack instead of the sunfreeware.com packages. They include bcmath afaik, you just have to enable the module in the php.ini file after installation.

Thanks for your answer. I think this paskage includes apache, mysql and php doesn't it ?
If possible, I would like to avoid replacing my current version of apache2 / mysql. Is it possible to install only php ?

Or is there another way to install modules ?

You can install the packages separately, so you can choose to only install PHP.

Ok. Thanks again for your help.
On the dl page, I just found 2 packages Solaris 10 5/08, SPARC (without Tomcat and GlassFish) and Solaris 10 5/08, SPARC (with Tomcat and GlassFish).
I've selected the one without.
I'm waiting for the download.

I suppose the differents packages (php, apache2...) are in the .tar.gz ?

[Kai-Kai]

Ok.
So according to the readme, you juste have to uncompress the pack and launch the script with the correct option.

gunzip webstack-native-1.4-b06-solaris-sparc.tar.gz
tar xf webstack-native-1.4-b06-solaris-sparc.tar
cd webstack-native-1.4-b06-solaris-sparc
./install php

And it should be ok.
I'll try that a bit later. I'm currently trying to recompile php to add snmp support to an existing installation. I'll try with this pack too.
Do you know if the support of snmp is also included in the sun stack php ?

Do you know if the support of snmp is also included in the sun stack php ?

No, I am not aware of that, and I unfortunately don't have any server currently using the Web Stack where I can check this on.

Thanks a lot for your help.
I've solved the problem recompiling php with the right options.

Hoping it can be usefull for other people :

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/php --with-config-file-path=/usr/local/php/lib --with-libxml-dir=/usr/local --with-zlib=/usr/local --with-xpm-dir=/usr/local --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-mysqli=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --without-pgsql --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local/lib --with-zlib-dir=/usr/local/lib --with-gd=/usr/local --enable-mbstring --enable-mbstr-enc-trans --enable-exif --enable-force-cgi-redirect --with-png --with-png-dir=/usr/local --with-curl=/usr/local --with-ldap=/usr/local --with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl --with-gettext --with-pcre-dir=/usr/local --with-freetype-dir=/usr/local --enable-bcmath --with-snmp=/usr/local
make all
make test
make install
