Dave Barr 91e836093c - Standardize the Unix acronym. Unix is the preferred capitalization
as UNIX is a registered trademark by the Open Group. References to UNIX
  were left in where it made sense, like example outputs, and so forth.
  You can read the Trademark User Guide for "UNIX" at:

There are several ways to install PHP for the Unix platform, either
with a compile and configure process, or through various
pre-packaged methods. This documentation is mainly focused around
the process of compiling and configuring PHP.

The initial PHP setup and configuration process is controlled by the
use of the commandline options of the <filename>configure</filename>
script. This page outlines the usage of the most common options,
but there are many others to play with. Check out the <link

options</link> for an exhaustive rundown. There are several ways
to install PHP:

<title>Building</title>
<simpara>
When PHP is configured, you are ready to build the CGI executable.
The command <command>make</command> should
take care of this. If it fails and you can't figure out why, see
the <link linkend="install.problems">Problems section</link>.
