Re: Removing ZendCore Corrupts ZendServer

[Jim Oberholtzer <midrangel@xxxxxxxxxx>]

OK, now I get it.  I am so used to creating my own Apache server and IFS 
structure to run the PHP applications that I would not have thought the 
install would clobber them.

Since it only takes about 15 minutes to copy/modify the default Zend 
Apache instance, I tend to do that.  That way the apache and IFS 
structures are not effected by changes to the LPP.
