Error Installing/Configuring PHP
 
http://www.freewebs.com/squirelplayintag/Screenshot.png
That is the error I get after I type in this:
Code:
cd /usr/local/src/php-4.3.6
./configure \
--with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs \
--disable-debug \
--enable-ftp \
--enable-inline-optimization \
--enable-magic-quotes \
--enable-mbstring \
--enable-mm=shared \
--enable-safe-mode \
--enable-track-vars \
--enable-trans-sid \
--enable-wddx=shared \
--enable-xml \
--with-dom \
--with-gd \
--with-gettext \
--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql \
--with-regex=system \
--with-xml \
--with-zlib-dir=/usr/lib
Oy the last part of LAMP and I'm having problems. It was going so nicely too! :(

That page doesnt exist even if you change the URL - perhaps you can just post the error.

squirellplaying 05-20-2004 02:56 PM
Opps. I fixed the link. The error:
configure:error:libpng.(a|so) not found.

david_ross 05-20-2004 02:59 PM
You can download libpng from:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showf...?group_id=5624

Just install that and then try the php install again.

Where do I install it to. Do I do cd <dir>, then tar zxf filename ?

david_ross 05-20-2004 03:06 PM
yes and then follow the instructions in the tarball.

squirellplaying 05-20-2004 03:13 PM
Ok I did tar zxf libpng-1.2.5.tar.gz and it made a folder in my root folder. Is it ok there? Is that all I have to do? I didn't see any installing instructions in the folder.

squirellplaying 05-20-2004 06:48 PM
I also ran the Redhat update which had the file, or so I thought, in it but still no change.

squirellplaying 05-21-2004 03:13 PM
Anyone :(

No - you need to install it.

Well I was surprised that there were no instructions so I downloaded the file myself and oddly enough there was a file called "INSTALL" which contained all the installation instructions.

Ugg :( I was looking in the read me's. I have no idea what I'm doing. Do I use makefile.std?

david_ross 05-21-2004 06:52 PM
I think I would use "makefile.linux".

squirellplaying 05-21-2004 08:59 PM
Ok. So I downloaded the zlib file. did ./configure, then make test, then make install. When back to the libpng files and followed the directions. After the make I tried the php configure commands and still got the same error. :( I don't understand what I'm doing at all.

squirellplaying 05-22-2004 07:48 PM
Can I just do ./configure make make install. Do I need all those other commands?

Did you install libpng?
