I've done it many times with PHP3 but can't get it to work with version 4. PHP4 with Apache will build no trouble but as soon as the --with-informix is added it breaks. I know everything on the machine works because of having version 3 fully working. It seems it's something to do with the libraries. When I add an IFX_LIBS="$INFORMIXDIR/lib/esql/libgen.a" just for testing for the configure stage the conftest seems to pass ok and no debug.log is produced but it still won't compile though. Must be something in this area. I'll give any help I can to resolve this. It's either something silly or more likely because my os is SCO :o( BTW, which supporting build programs(bison,flex ranlib etc) and versions are required to install version 4. I think some trouble with especially non-gnu platforms(like mine) is that not all the required programs are installed and this causes people trouble. Perhaps a list in the INSTALL file? Just a thought.
