With suggestions now flowing in thick and fast, I 've made a summary of replies so far: 1. Jen tries to compile php4 and finds apxs missing 2. jen compiles php4 without it and finds libphp4.so modules missing 3. jen is advised by Sean Neakums to install apache-dev for apxs etc 4. php4 now compiles but make install gets stuck doing *something* with libphp4.la 5. M J Ray asks about the apxs error, "not in path" - answer is it wasn't but is now. 6. Alexis Lee suggest more error log, but jen can't seem to find anything helpful. 7. Alexis Lee offers to send libphp4.so module although it is Deeply not The Right Way To Do It - this sounds very tempting to jen but she may well end up in a worse muddle. 8. Otherwise Alexis suggests things to do with apache sources and rebuilds of httpd, which also may end up with jen in a worse muddle 9. David Freeman offers his condolences and points jen once again at his "C" book......... Is it worth me comparing libphp4.la files? Re. Error log file - I've got config.log but the error is occurring on make install. My thoughts are that I could try and see if anything is wrong with makefile or libphp4.la (though why should there be?), then gratefully accept the libphp4.so module and try and work out where to stick it, the failing that do the thing with recompiling apache and httpd and php. Then failing that, borrow David's C book....... ;-) Sorry for the long output, but i've posted it below - can anyone see anything wrong with it? Thanks, Jenny. # libphp4.la - a libtool library file # Generated by ltmain.sh - GNU libtool 1.3.5 (1.385.2.206 2000/05/27 11:12:27) # # Please DO NOT delete this file! # It is necessary for linking the library. # The name that we can dlopen(3). dlname='' # Names of this library. library_names='' # The name of the static archive. old_library='libphp4.a' # Libraries that this one depends upon. dependency_libs=' -R/usr/local/pgsql/lib -L/usr/local/pgsql/lib -ldl -lpq -lcrypt -lresolv -lm -ldl -lnsl -lresolv -ldl -lpq -lcrypt -lresolv -lm -ldl -lnsl -lresolv' # Version information for libphp4. current=0 age=0 revision=0 # Is this an already installed library? installed=no # Directory that this library needs to be installed in: libdir='/php-4.0.6/libs'

Take a look-see at: http://www.devshed.com/Server_Side/PHP/SoothinglySeamless/print.html and enjoy! It's a manual compile, but I followed it (mostly) and it worked for me. Besides, there's nothing wrong with building stuff from scratch, and IMO, rather a lot to be said for it...

Ok I'll stop lurking and introduce myself too. Name: Mark Elliss I work from home in a small village called Onehouse in Suffolk. I am an Objective-c programmer by choice and an electronics engineer by trade. I use Linux to develop programs which I then have to port to Windoze, Solaris, IBM AIX and HP-UX. The company I work for is based in London so it's great to work online. Family permitting I hope to attend some of the meets soon. Regards Mark

I think you mentioned you're using > Debian; do you have the apache-dev package installed? Hurrah! Here we find why I took 3 weeks to fail to install it properly. Wait till your trying to install GD support, dependency knightmare! But back to the topic, I found you needed to recompile Apache before PHP then compile PHP then I think you had to some other weird and wonderful compilations to get it to all work. Eventually I gave up and used C :o) It was exactly this problem which I had.

Thanks for the reply. I built it - - with - pgsql - - with - apxs as per the documentation, but i got the errors: "sorry, I was not able to successfully run APXS. Possible reasons: 1. Perl is not installed; 2. Apache was not compiled with DSO support (- - enable-modules=so); 3. "apxs" is not in your path" So I ran it using just the - - with - pgsql option, which worked fine, apart from the lack of necessary modules, at which point I mailed the list. A trawl through the net for similar problems just led me to retry using ./configure - - with - pgsql - - with - apache but again i get the error (in Configuring SAPI modules..) "Invalid Apache directory - unable to find httpd.h under /usr/local/apache" I haven't got httpd.h (or apache.h), so no point in trying it with full path to apache/httpd.h. Jen.

I think you mentioned you're using >Debian; do you have the apache-dev package installed? I do now! - - with - apxs is fine now, many thanks. However make install stops at "make[1]: *** [libphp4.la] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/php-4.0.6' make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1" Now I do actually have libphp4.la, so i don't know what it is grumbling about now. Cheers, Jenny.
