Installing Custom PHP & PDFLib

Hello all,

I am trying to install PHPLib an open source library which will be used to generate dynamic PDF file. I read the dreamhost wiki and it said that I need to install the Custom PHP as the I will not be able to install the PDFLib in the default PHP that the dreamhost installed. I have tried to install the Custom PHP using the process explained in the dreamhost wiki after making some modifications in the code I run the script using PUTTY and the command runs without any error. But When I see the phpinfo page into my server I see Configuration path as /etc/php5/cgi but as far as I understand by reading the help on installing PHPLib it should be something like /user/php5......

Can you help me please. I am stuck in this part like forever.

Thanks in advance.

Did you update your htaccess file to point to the new install?

My website

We are talking about the code below?

Options ExecCGI
AddHandler php-cgi .php
Action php-cgi /cgi-bin/php.cgi

<FilesMatch "^php5?\.(ini|cgi)$">
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from All
Allow from env=REDIRECT_STATUS
</FilesMatch>

Yes I did try that too but when I try to browse the site there is error. You can find that error below:
