Then I have to acquire the skills... I think you only need to know about the modules needed for PHP, right? These of course depend on what other API's I'm going to use, and I know them. So determining the packages doesn't seem like a big problem.

I'm don't think I can upgrade to Lenny with my provider...

If this is not the big Problem, why don't you compile it like this ?

What happend if you run ./configure in the decompress folder ?
Don't forget your current PHP Binaries, to be sure YOUR Version is running and later to have no problems with updating via apt-get or aptitude.

Why not ? You have a root SSH Access or ?

I found the phpMelb instructions before. I'll give it a shot this evening.

The current PHP is running, tested via the phpinfo() function.

Hmmm yes I do have root access, but should I really try to upgrade to Lenny? I have no idea, I'm new to webadmin stuff... and Debian Linux...

I was wondering about Apache2 with the PHP config:

1. What's the difference between apxs2 and apache2handler? I currently tend to use the apache2handler for whatever reason, however there's not even a config flag...

2. How do I find out whether I have the respective libs installed, as for GD and other stuff?

3. Shall I use mysqlnd with mysqli, like --with-mysqli=mysqlnd? What's the benefit here? If I don't use mysqlnd, what else is used? Which approach is better?
