I'm trying to compile PHP5. I've installed mysql5 successfully and apache1.3 is working great, but I get the message
below when I compile PHP5. I double checked if I have libxml2 installed and I do. I installed libxml2 binary from
sunfreeware. Please see below for details:



./configure --with-mysql --with-apxs=/usr/apache/bin/apxs --enable-libxml --with-libxml-dir=/usr/include/libxml2/libxml

checking libxml2 install dir... /usr/include/libxml2/libxml
checking for xml2-config path... /usr/local/bin/xml2-config

configure: error: build test failed. Please check the config.log for details.

Please help.

What does config.log show regarding that error? Post those relevant lines only please as the file can be long.

I'm not sure what I'm looking at when I checked config.log. I just did a grep on errors and this is what I came up with:

Please help.

thank you for the reply. i found php and apache binaries from sunfreeware.com and installed those instead. apache and php is running great. thank you.

Hi,

I have tried in vain to compile from source PHP 5.2.3 with Tidy (HTML Tidy program) on a solaoris10/sparc box.

I cannot use the binary build of PHP since it does not include Tidy.

Is there a a "php-5.2.3-sol10-sparc-local" build that contains Tidy?

Thank you for any assistance or suggestions.


Mark

Typical simple test config and associated error in the log are:

Config: under /usr/local/src/php-5.2.3

./configure --with-config-file-path=/usr/local/apache2 --with-apxs2=/usr/apache2/bin/apxs --enable-dbase \
--with-libxml-dir=/usr/local --with-curl=/usr/local --with-tidy

I found that I could not install php-5.2.x unless I upgraded to gcc3 of later.

goto blastwave.org and get the pkg-get util and update as needed.

This should solve the problem.

I do like the sunfreeware stuff because it wants to install into /usr/local which I don't have permissions to manage or alter.

using blastwave I can install it to where ever I want.
