Hostgator and Bluehost are our best webhosts and godaddy.com is the best domain registrar.

Currently I am running PHP4 on CPanel 11. Many of my sites are programmed accordin to PHP4 so I don’t want to take any risk by upgrading to PHP5 but I would like to run both PHP4 & PHP5 simeltaneously on CPanel.

I found a documentation on net

http://www.cpanelconfig.com/cpanel-a…cpanel-server/

On step 3 I was able to process everything upto

echo “#define HAVE_SENDMAIL 1″ >> /home/cpphpbuild/php-5.2.4/main/php_config.h
wget http://www.elix.us/tutorials/php5.gen.cpanel
chmod 700 php5.gen.cpanel
./php5.gen.cpanel

but when I type make & make install I am getting error

root@server [/home/cpphpbuild/php-5.2.4]# make
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.

root@server [/home/cpphpbuild/php-5.2.4]# make install
make: *** No rule to make target `install’. Stop.

Does anyone has step by step guide how to install & configure PHP5 without intrupting PHP4 ?
