ID: 14277 Updated by: mfischer Reported By: werner.dundler@austrocontrol.at Old Status: Open Status: Feedback Bug Type: Compile Failure Operating System: solaris 8(sparc) PHP Version: 4.0.6 New Comment: Werner, it was a pleasure for me (remind my name? :) Anyway, can you give it a test run with RC3 link I pasted so we see if the situation has cleared? There is certainly a bug hiding somewhere ... possibly. Feedback. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-11-29 08:16:44] werner.dundler@austrocontrol.at in the meantime i got i running by pointing the --with-gd dir to the dir where i compiled gd-2.0.1 !!!! don't ask me why it works now . when i submitted the "bug" i i saw that there is a 4.1 version. but was to blind to find a link on the page. maybe the php.net guys could point a link to the "beta" version on the download page. ... big THX for fast response. bye werner compiled it (on an sparc u10:sol8,gcc) with: ./configure --with-mysql --with-zlib --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local/lib \ --with-png-dir=/usr/local/lib --with-gd=/home/compile/gd-2.0.1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-11-29 05:37:07] mfischer@php.net The configure script improved quite a lot since then. Can you try at leasting compiling a more recent version, e.g. http://www.php.net/~zeev/php-4.1.0RC3.tar.gz ? If still doesn't work can you paste, say, the last 10-20 lines of your config.log? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-11-29 05:22:35] werner.dundler@austrocontrol.at solaris box .. filled with gnu stuff. gcc,gnu linker and gnu make. compiled gd-2.0.1 (i need the truecolor image function imagecreatetruecolor) when i use --with-gd=/usr/local/lib configure ends with an error that it cannot find libgd.(so|a). but both libgd.a and libgd.so are there. i tried to modify the configure script but failed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=14277&edit=1
