This is actually PostgreSQL, which isn't supported. Follow Eva's instructions for installing PHP and MySQL (Thanks for posting those Eva). i am not sure about that .. what i posted above has proven to work on raq3s before mine and on mine ...
RaQ4's already come with PHP4 but not MySQL ... so installing MySQL is your concern for that i think...
bear in mine PHP 4.04pl1 which i have on my new red hat linux server for my vB doesn't have a Zend optimser ready for it yet :(
unfortunately.. it's 4:15 am here so i am off to bed soon ...
have you tried the cobalt mailing list on their support site http://www.cobalt.com ?
U gotta be kidding... Now that Sun Microsystems has taken them over, you need another computer just find anything in their support sections... Unbelievable...
i have a raq3 as well (not for my vB) but mysql and php4 is not installed by default, you'll have to install it yourself.. after installing myself with help of a few people i made my own how to article for future reference.
installs PHP4.03pl1 (4.06) with Zend optimser and MySQL 3.22.32 (3.23.46)
If you need to install latest mysql 3.23.46 you need to download and replace the below four mysql 3.22.x rpms with these
http://web.tryc.on.ca/mysql/Downloads/MySQL-3.23/MySQL-3.23.46-1.i386.rpm
http://web.tryc.on.ca/mysql/Downloads/MySQL-3.23/MySQL-client-3.23.46-1.i386.rpm
http://web.tryc.on.ca/mysql/Downloads/MySQL-3.23/MySQL-devel-3.23.46-1.i386.rpm
http://web.tryc.on.ca/mysql/Downloads/MySQL-3.23/MySQL-shared-3.23.46-1.i386.rpm
This guide is to install MySQL 3.22.32 and PHP 4.03pl1 (4.06)on a Raq3 server:
You first need to login to telnet and switch to root via the command
# su-
MySQL installation:
issue each of these commands and let the server process them
rpm -Uvh ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/MySQL-3.22.32-1.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/MySQL-client-3.22.32-1.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/MySQL-devel-3.22.32-1.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/MySQL-shared-3.22.32-1.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/contrib/i386/perl-DBI-1.14-1.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/contrib/i386/perl-Msql-Mysql-modules-1.2214-1.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/freetype-1.2-7.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/freetype-devel-1.2-7.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/freetype-utils-1.2-7.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/gd-1.3-5.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/gd-devel-1.3-5.i386.rpm
PHP 4.06 installation:
Download and put into your RaQ3 server's admin directory the PHP4.03pl1 source code from
http://www.php.net/do_download.php?download_file=php-4.0.6.tar.gz&source_site=www.php.net
Still in telnet as root change to the directory which has the PHP 4.03pl1 source code
tar zxvf php4.0.6.tar.gz
cd php-4.0.6
./configure --with-mysql --with-apxs
make
make install
cd /etc/httpd/conf
pico srm.conf
## add to srm.conf:
DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.shtml home.html home.htm index.php
AddType application/x-httpd-php .phtml
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php3
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
## save file
pico httpd.conf
## change the php4 LoadModule, thats allready added to httpd.conf:
LoadModule php4_module /usr/lib/apache/libphp4.so
## save file
Zend Optimiser installation:
Still in telnet as root - Download Zend Optimiser for Linux and upload
to the same directory as PHP4.03pl files and issue the following commands
####### Zend optimizer installation
mkdir /usr/local/Zend
mkdir /usr/local/Zend/lib
cp ZendOptimizer.so /usr/local/Zend/lib
pico -w /usr/local/lib/php.ini
####### CHANGE ###########
engine = Off
register_globals = On
register_argc_argv = On
magic_quotes_gpc = On
####### ADD ###########
zend_optimizer.optimization_level=15
zend_extension="/usr/local/Zend/lib/ZendOptimizer.so"
#######################
####### ADD before NameVirtualHost 123.123.123.123 (include the ### PHP
stuff)
ExtendedStatus On
order allow,deny
allow from all
require user admin
Authname ServerStatus
Authtype Basic
SetHandler server-status
#################################PHP SAFE MODE############################
php_admin_flag engine On
php_admin_value doc_root /home/sites/home
php_admin_value safe_mode_exec_dir .:/home/sites/home
php_admin_value open_basedir .:/tmp:/home/sites/home
php_admin_value include_path .:/home/sites/home
###############################END PHP SAFE MODE###########################
php_admin_flag engine On
## save file and restart Apache by issuing
/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd stop
/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd start
To test to see if it works, save a file named phpinfo.php and place in it
Then upload and view in browser.
Note: with 'php_admin_flag engine On' after the END PHP SAFE MODE part you will enable PHP for every virtual site and the main server site as well.
SECURITY RISK:
This is a security risk if you are hosting other webmasters/virtual sites since this allows any of your virtual sites/webmasters to read any public readable files on the system, write anywhere, etc - equivalent to giving telnet access to your server.
So to be safe, you use PHP SAFE MODE - instead, replace 'php_admin_flag engine On' (with below) just before your first
NameVirtualHost 123.123.123.123
replace with the below
php_admin_flag engine On
php_admin_value doc_root /home/sites/site1
php_admin_value safe_mode_exec_dir .:/home/sites/site1
php_admin_value open_basedir .:/tmp:/home/sites/site1
php_admin_value include_path .:/home/sites/site1
php_admin_flag engine On
php_admin_value doc_root /home/sites/site2
php_admin_value safe_mode_exec_dir .:/home/sites/site2
php_admin_value open_basedir .:/tmp:/home/sites/site2
php_admin_value include_path .:/home/sites/site2
and so on for each virtual site you want to enable PHP for. For me i have 30 sites on my raq3 from site1 to site30, so i have 30 entries like
php_admin_flag engine On
php_admin_value doc_root /home/sites/site1
php_admin_value safe_mode_exec_dir .:/home/sites/site1
php_admin_value open_basedir .:/tmp:/home/sites/site1
php_admin_value include_path .:/home/sites/site1
where you change the site1, site2, site3 ... site30 to enable PHP. Makes offering PHP safe :)

Eva... Thanks for your quick reply from way down under...
Not knowing anything about the functions of what I just bought, from what I am able gather, the RAQ4i is able to support PHP but doesn't have it installed...
A friend of mine is attempting to install mySQL into the server but it appears that he's running into a few glitches...
If your going to be on line for a bit, I'll see if I can get him to come over here and you guy'z can confer directly...
Ed The Cannuck
Eva or anybody in the know... Newbie here...
I've just purchased a RaQ 4i and am trying to have it configured to suite vB2 (when it's released), with the latest versions of PHP and mySQL...
Will the technique and links as posted above be applicable to the RAQ4i...
