Bug #2259: /etc/httpd/modules/libphp3.so: undefined symbol: fstat

From: mev0003@unt.edu Operating system: Linux 2.2.12, RedHat 6.0 PHP version: 3.0.12 PHP Bug Type: Dynamic loading related Bug description: /etc/httpd/modules/libphp3.so: undefined symbol: fstat Apache server version is 1.3.6 Configured php 3.0.12 with the following options: LDFLAGS="-lc" CFLAGS="-fPIC" ./configure --prefix=/usr --with-mysql --with-apxs \ --with-config-file-path=/etc/httpd --enable-safe-mode \ --with-exec-dir=/usr/bin --with-system-regex --disable-debug \ --with-zlib --enable-debugger --enable-magic-quotes \ --with-pgsql=/usr Starting httpd gives the following error: [root@ds9 /root]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd start Starting httpd: Syntax error on line 26 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load /etc/httpd/modules/libphp3.so into server: /etc/httpd/modules/libphp3.so: undefined symbol: fstat [FAILED] In httpd.conf I have, per INSTALL.REDHAT and INSTALL.DSO: LoadModule php3_module modules/libphp3.so AddModule mod_php3.c In a solution for this problem in php4 on RH 6.0, the writer noted to change lines 75 and 76 in /usr/sbin/apxs from: my $CFG_LD_SHLIB = 'ld'; # substituted via Makefile.tmpl my $CFG_LDFLAGS_SHLIB = '-Bshareable'; # substituted via Makefile.tmpl to my $CFG_LD_SHLIB = 'gcc'; # substituted via Makefile.tmpl my $CFG_LDFLAGS_SHLIB = '-shared'; # substituted via Makefile.tmpl This does not work, as -shared is not a legal option for gcc, and with this change, the compile fails.
