#21151 [Opn->Csd]: zlib and pcre as external modules don't work

ID: 21151 Updated by: sniper@php.net Reported By: oden.eriksson@linux-mandrake.com -Status: Open +Status: Closed Bug Type: Dynamic loading Operating System: Mandrake 9.0 PHP Version: 4.3.0RC4 New Comment: These compile failures are now fixed in CVS. But compiling zlib/pcre as shared is not really useful..you lose some functionality they provide. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-09 12:22:40] sniper@php.net #22131 has nothing to do with this issue.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-09 10:32:09] moriyoshi@php.net Just FYI: See bug #22131 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-29 06:07:59] achowe@snert.com Between 4.2.3 and 4.3.0 (Mandrake 9.0) the ability to make zlib a shared module BROKE. Regardless if this module is small or not, the option exists to make it a shared module for PHP. It compiles fine, but it won't run: [root@x1 apache]# apachectl start Syntax error on line 62 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load /etc/httpd/lib/apache/libphp4.so into server: /etc/httpd/lib/apache/libphp4.so: undefined symbol: zlib_globals /usr/sbin/apachectl start: httpd could not be started [root@x1 apache]# Our configure script: ./configure \ --prefix=/usr/local \ --libexecdir=/usr/lib/apache \ --with-config-file-path=/usr/local/lib/php:/usr/local/lib:/etc \ --enable-discard-path \ --enable-bcmath=shared \ --enable-exif=shared \ --enable-ftp=shared \ --enable-sockets=shared \ --enable-track-vars \ --with-apxs \ --with-bz2=shared \ --with-gettext \ --with-xml=shared \ --with-gd=shared,/usr/local \ --with-freetype-dir=shared,/usr/local \ --with-jpeg-dir=shared \ --with-png-dir=shared \ --with-ldap=shared \ --with-pcre-regex=shared \ --with-zlib=shared,/usr \ --with-openssl=shared \ --with-pgsql=shared \ --with-mysql=shared,/usr \ --with-mnogosearch=shared,/usr/local/mnogosearch \ --with-snmp=shared \ --disable-ctype \ --without-aspell \ --without-db2 \ --without-db3 \ --without-pear ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-13 12:16:22] oden.eriksson@linux-mandrake.com Jean-Michel Yes I am ;) But if these extensions can't be built as a loadable dso, you shouldn't be able to use "=shared". This is really extreme stuff and I doubt people would use this configure line. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-07 10:27:49] helmut@phpwebservices.com Confirmed same issue on Solaris 8 for version 4.3.0. I do agree that zlib is not that large and can be compiled into php (hit after reading that suggestion!) but still the option is there and does not work... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
