PHP compilation problems

This chapter collects many compilation errors. 1. I used anonymous CVS to get the latest source code package, but no script file is configured! You must install the GNUautoconf package.

This chapter collects many compilation errors.

1. I use anonymous CVS to get the latest source code package, but no script file is configured!

You must install the GNU autoconf package so that the configuration script file can be generated from configure. in, as long as the./buildconf file runs in the top-level Directory of the source code obtained by the CVS server.

(Note: Unless you run the configure -- enable-maintainer-mode option, the configuration script will not be regenerated, even if configure. the in file has been updated, so when you find configure. in has changed, and you have to do it manually. in config or config. after status is run, you should see a number like @ VARIABLE @ in your Makefile .)

2. I encountered a problem when configuring PHP to work in Apache.

It says it cannot find httpd. h, but I think it's there! You need to tell configure/setup script the location of Apache's top-level Directory, that is, you need to mark -- with-apache =/path/to/apache, instead of -- with-apache =/path/to/apache/src.

3. when I run conifgure, it says it cannot find the include file or some libraries: GD, gdbm, or some other packages!

You can check the configure script, the header file or non-standard library location, to send some special signs to the C preprocessor. Example: CPPFLAGS =-I/path/to/include LDFLAGS =-L/path/to/library./configure
