Guys, please help me, I'm new here.

I had a cPanel server with php 4 and php 5 (apache 2.2.9) . I purchased a new server, installed lsws. Now trying to get the same php modules as I had been using earlier.

PHP 4
-----
bcmath
calendar
dbase
exif
ftp
gd
ttf
libxml
magic-quotes
mbstring
sockets
xslt
curl
bz2
dom-xslt
freetype
gettext
iconv
imap
mcrypt
mhash
mysql
openssl
swf
ttf
zip
zlib
ffmpeg-php
Zend Optimiser
Ion Cube Loader
Eaccelerator


PHP5
-----
all above plus :
SOAP
sockets

I entered admin interface -> actions -> build php. Please suggest me what config parameters I must give here.

Thanks

try the "build matching PHP" feature in our WHM plugin. Just build apache with cpanel easy apache with the configurations you want to use.

Thank you, that works.

I had been using suPHP as it is considered to be the most secure form and I enabled PHPSuexec here. But a test page placed at /usr/local/apache/htdocs/info.php is pulling up fine on browser even if the ownership of the script is changed.

Is it possible to show an error message when the php script's owner/permission is changed from the normal one.

Our suEXEC implementation uses the owner of the document root directory, owner of script does not matter.
Your test script should be served as nobody:nobody.

I did "build matching PHP" feature from WHM plugin . It works fine, but now I would like to add mailheaders and suhosin, how can I do that.

Build Apache mod_php with mailheaders and suhosin, then build matching PHP.
