How to Upgrade to PHP 4.3.10 in RH9

| I know how to install programs (configure, make, make install, etc.),
but exactly how does one UPGRADE an existing PHP installation?
The php.net site and pretty much anywhere else I've looked does not say
anything except to recommend upgrading. They give no instructions at
all. My Linux books are no help with this, and searching the newsgroups
has turned up nothing but recommendations to go to php.net ... which
has no such instructions.
I ask because simply installing the new version of PHP has killed my
server. I can't get the httpd process to start.
So, please, can someone post a step-by-step set of instructions for
upgrading an existing PHP installation?
You will be the first to do so, as far as I can determine.
Thank you very much.

In the same way. At least, that's how I do it, and I'm not aware of another
way, unless you're installing from some sort of package e.g. rpm.

What error do you get?

They're pretty much the same as installing.

I once tried (with no success, actually). If you upgrade PHP you must also
upgrade apache (to 2.4.50 or greater), the apache modules, openssl and
quite a lot of libraries. It's crazy.
