Re: PHP on I questions

Let's see

1) The LPP for Zend Server for IBM i which is the only supported version of PHP is 2ZSVRPI
2) Zend and Aura are not the same software. See the article in SystemiNews for details: http://systeminetwork.com/article/new-open-source-php-toolkit-simplifies-communication-between-rpg-web-apps
3) PHP can run for free under the Community Edition on all platforms: Linux, Windows and IBM i.
4) There are two flavors of Zend Server. The full product is simply called Zend Server which has two support levels (Gold & Platinum) and many productivity features. Call me for details as I am not about to piss off David by turning this into a sales pitch. And Zend Server Community Edition which comes with a perpetual license and 1 year of Silver support (email/web only 72 hour SLA) and no productivity features thanks to our partnership with IBM.
5) MySQL is currently distributed with Zend Server. You can also get MySQL for IBM i from the MySQL archive site at http://downloads.mysql.com/archives.php?p=mysql-5.1&o=i5os

Hope this helps!

I am hoping someone can clarify some of this.

If PHP is pre-loaded on 5.4, 6.1 or 7.1, what is the LPP number.
Is Zend and Aura the same software??
If PHP is pre-loaded then you can run it for free??
There appears to be 3 suites of zend, free, platinum and gold.
Are the tools that you can acquire from AURA interchangeable between zend
and AURA.
How can you get the mysql engine or is this pre-loaded with the zend.
