#27260 [Asn->Csd]: recode conflicts with yaz/mysql/imap

ID: 27260 Updated by: sniper@php.net Reported By: php at phpee dot com -Status: Assigned +Status: Closed Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Operating System: Debian Woody stable PHP Version: 5CVS Assigned To: sniper New Comment: I added some checks now into PHP 5. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-02-15 10:05:46] php at phpee dot com look, I totally agree with you and admit it was stupid from my side not to read the manual before posting this bug report. But it took me several hours till I figured out that --with-recode was the problem. And I'm not going to read the manual about every single module if I use 20 or even more different extensions. Here you agree with me too, right? A warning in ./configure would have pointed me right away into the right direction even if it would have be a warning like "recode failed... don't ask me why!" Actually ./configure is already pretty "smart" and provides us with wonderful human readable warnings. - So why not add this other tiny check to that script? But anyway, let's stop arguing about that. Keep up the good work and good luck for RC1 and PHP5's great future!!! thx. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-02-15 09:49:35] sniper@php.net Reading the manual page for recode would have saved you from the same trouble too. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-02-15 09:13:41] php at phpee dot com sorry. > The IMAP extension cannot be used in conjuction > with the recode or YAZ extensions.

Why not trash it righ away or at least give the user some warning in ./configure?! A simple warning would have saved me hours and I wouldn't have to bug you with a bogus bug report. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-02-15 08:54:14] sniper@php.net RTFM: http://www.php.net/recode (is this SO hard to do..?) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-02-15 07:24:50] derick@php.net You can make a backtrace just fine, just start apache in single process mode (-X) from within GDB. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
