Some problems are more common than others. The most
common ones are listed in the PHP
FAQ, part of this manual.
If you are still stuck, someone on the PHP
installation mailing list may be able to help you. You
should check out the archive first, in case someone already
answered someone else who had the same problem as you. The
archives are available from the support page on
http://www.php.net/. To subscribe to the PHP
installation mailing list, send an empty mail to
php-install-subscribe@lists.php.net. The mailing list
address is
php-install@lists.php.net.
If you want to get help on the mailing list, please
try to be precise and give the necessary details about your
environment (which operating system, what PHP version, what
web server, if you are running PHP as CGI or a server
module, etc.), and preferably enough code to make others
able to reproduce and test your problem.
If you think you have found a bug in PHP, please
report it. The PHP developers probably don't know about it,
and unless you report it, chances are it won't be fixed.
You can report bugs using the bug-tracking system at
http://bugs.php.net/. Please do not send bug reports in
mailing list or personal letters. The bug system is also
suitable to submit feature requests.
Read the How
to report a bug document before submitting any bug
reports!
