[FX.php List] PHP software installation manual vs. FMP Adv. Server

[Leo R. Lundgren]

I would say no. And I would definately want to encourage you not to "be afraid" of rolling your own installation of PHP if you want to. There's nothing that should hinder you from doing that and still working just as well with FM.

The only thing that comes to my mind is that maybe the FM PHP installation sets up the php privilege set on the FM server? But I don't know, it's been a while.

I have built a few things in PHP which work directly with FM, and I have always used my own PHP installation. It works fine. It's just PHP regardless where you got it from.
