## Solaris specific installation tips

This section contains notes and hints specific to installing PHP on Solaris systems.

### Required software

Solaris installs often lack C compilers and their related tools. Read this FAQ for information on why using GNU versions for some of these tools is necessary. The required software is as follows:

- gcc (recommended, other C compilers may work)
- make
- flex
- bison
- m4
- autoconf
- automake
- perl
- gzip
- tar
- GNU sed

In addition, you will need to install (and possibly compile) any additional software specific to your configuration, such as Oracle or MySQL.

### Using Packages

You can simplify the Solaris install process by using pkgadd to install most of your needed components.
