Thank you for your interest in PHP. . ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-04-09 09:16:10] jay@php.net I successfully compiled Aspell 0.50.3 and an up-to-date CVS checkout of php4 with the pspell extension on Solaris 8 SPARC last night and there were no problems. I didn't need to add Aspell to LIBS, and there's no mention of it in any of the Makefiles. Could you try a snapshot from snaps.php.net and see how that goes? I'm also curious as to what you're using for your compiler, linker, etc., so if you could post those, too...

At that point I get multiple errors such as: Undefined first referenced symbol in file aspell_speller_store_replacement ext/pspell/pspell.lo aspell_speller_add_to_session ext/pspell/pspell.lo delete_aspell_speller ext/pspell/pspell.lo ... etc. It appears that the problem is that PHP is including the pspell library but not the newer aspell library, where all those symbols can be found. The solution that worked for me was to edit the "configure" script, find the section where "-lpspell" is prepended to the $LIBS variables, and add "-laspell" as well. e.g. on line 62147 for PHP 4.3.1's "configure file", change: LIBS="-lpspell $LIBS" to LIBS="-laspell -lpspell $LIBS" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=23089&edit=1
