Bug #17005 Updated: Configure failure using apxs2

ID: 17005 Updated by: jwoolley@php.net Reported By: aaabbb@alb.org.uk -Status: Open +Status: Closed Bug Type: Apache2 related Operating System: RedHat 7.2 PHP Version: 4.0CVS-2002-05-04 New Comment: This bug has been fixed in CVS. You can grab a snapshot of the CVS version at http://snaps.php.net/. In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up soon at http://www.php.net/manual/. In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better. I'm going to assume the apxs bug that was mentioned in this report really was the problem and close this out. If you find that it still doesn't work with Apache 2.0.37, please feel free to open a new report. Thanks!

It fails when sbindir != bindir Have a look at my report in apaches bug db: http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8869 The fix will be included in apache 2.0.37, if you want to try it already there's a patch in the report above. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-05-04 14:02:02] aaabbb@alb.org.uk I have tried running the configure script on both the current download version of php4 and also the latest CVS version. The compile script stops when it checks for apxs. I used the following command on both occations: ./configure --with-mysql --with-apxs2=/usr/sbin/apxs I have re-compiled apache-2.0.35 several times in the belief that there was a problem with the installation. The configure command used for apache is: ./configure --enable-layout=RedHat --enable-ssl=shared --enable-disk-cache --enable-mem-cache --enable-mods-shared=all Apache compiles successfuly and works as expected. The end of the php4 configure script follows: ... Configuring SAPI modules checking for AOLserver support... no checking for Apache 1.x module support via DSO through APXS... no checking for Apache 1.x module support... no checking for mod_charset compatibility option... no checking for Apache 2.0 module support via DSO through APXS... Sorry, I cannot run apxs. Possible reasons follow: 1. Perl is not installed 2. apxs was not found. Try to pass the path using --with-apxs2=/path/to/apxs 3. Apache was not built using --enable-so (the apxs usage page is displayed) The output of /usr/sbin/apxs follows: Usage: apxs -g [-S <var>=<val>] -n <modname> apxs -q [-S <var>=<val>] <query> ... apxs -c [-S <var>=<val>] [-o <dsofile>] [-D <name>[=<value>]] [-I <incdir>] [-L <libdir>] [-l <libname>] [-Wc,<flags>] [-Wl,<flags>] <files> ... apxs -i [-S <var>=<val>] [-a] [-A] [-n <modname>] <dsofile> ... apxs -e [-S <var>=<val>] [-a] [-A] [-n <modname>] <dsofile> ... configure: error: Aborting Thanks in advance.
