When you are finished making changes to your srm.conf file, you can
start up your server.

USING PHP3 AND PHP4 AS CONCURRENT APACHE MODULES

Recent operating systems provide the ability to perform versioning and
scoping. This features make it possible to let PHP3 and PHP4 run as
concurrent modules in one Apache server.

This feature is known to work on the following platforms:

- Linux with recent binutils (2.9.1.x tested)
- Solaris 2.5 or better
- FreeBSD (4.0-current tested)

To enable it, configure PHP3 and PHP4 to use APXS (--with-apxs) and the
necessary link extensions (--enable-versioning). Otherwise, all standard
installations instructions apply. For example:

$ ./configure \
--with-apxs=/apache/bin/apxs \
--enable-versioning \
--with-mysql \
--enable-track-vars

If this also works on your platform or if you know a way to do it, please
report it to our bug database at http://bugs.php.net
