PHP 4.0 Bug #5160: Oracle libraries linking problem

From: kir@astrive.ru Operating system: Solaris 7 x86 PHP version: 4.0 Latest CVS (20/06/2000) PHP Bug Type: Compile Failure Bug description: Oracle libraries linking problem I tried to get around of bug 4747 http://bugs.php.net/bugs.php?id=4747 and recompiled PHP without DSO. I use Oracle 7.3.2 on Solaris x86. PHP3 works/compiles just fine.

No output written to httpd collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: *** [target_static] Error 1 I suggest there is a problem in the order of Oracle libraries in link command, because in PHP3 link coomand most libraries like -lcommon appears two or even three times. Here each Oracle library is presented only once.
