problem configureing php

CrotchCricket · 10-25-2004, 11:00 PM

Ok I'm having a bit of trouble compiling php when i use the ./configure command for php-5.0.2.

I think i need libxml2 but i cant seem to find that program anywhere.

Code:

Configuring extensions
checking whether to enable LIBXML support... yes
checking libxml2 install dir... no
configure: error: xml2-config not found. Please check your libxml2 installation.[mike@localhost php-5.0.2]$

Hello!

Code:

rpm -qa | grep libxml2

This will search for libxml2 if it's installed by RPM. If it's there use:

Code:

whereis libxml2

Then when you compile PHP5 use:

Code:

./configure --with-libxml2-dir=/usr/lib/

for example.

If it's not installed, you can find it here . Also you need the devel, from here .

Hope this helped!
