PHP 4.0 Bug #4531: cannot make - [libmysql_client.la] Error 139

From: quazar@bitblaster.com Operating system: RedHat 6.2 PHP version: 4.0 Release Candidate 2 PHP Bug Type: Installation problem Bug description: cannot make - [libmysql_client.la] Error 139 [I cannot attach my logs, so email me if you want them] SUMMARY I'm giving up (for now) trying to get a DSO module going for php4. Perhaps there is something here that would indicate a problem with the package, and not my system or something I'm doing. I saw ample opportunities to clean up compiler warnings, if nothing else :) The last events I experienced before throwing up my hands: make[4]: *** [libmysql_client.la] Error 139 kernel: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000014 I will do my best to be helpful if you reply needing further information or have any suggestions. [I'll also try to keep an eye on this coolio bug tracking system] DETAIL This might be time wasted but since this is a release candidate, and since I'm about to throw up my hands and use a RPM, I figured I'd report in on my complete failure to get php4 to build. It's probably something dumb that I am doing (I'm only a novice sysadmin), or something wrong with my system (new RedHat 6.2 build on a P-133 with 96megs). I'd be happy to supply additional infomation as required. Yes, for this system I *should* just use RPM as make takes a long time... but I like the control and learning opportunities. You can refer to the attached output (configure and make logged into >file 2>&1, and my system log). I want PHP4 running with PostgreSQL (installed last night, >seems really healthy and ready to go) and that's about all I know. I disabled building XML into >the module (trying DSO maybe I'd have better luck with static?) because of a previous compile >error (another day, perhaps). ./configure --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs --with-pgsql --disable-xml ./make Result was a nice batch of horrible system messages about bad compile. My prior attempt resulted in kernel panic (I did wipe it all clean for this report, start over from scratch with tar zxvf php...) I'm at a loss and will now retreat to php3 courtesy of RedHat
