ID: 14452 User updated by: glen@designsolution.co.uk Reported By: glen@designsolution.co.uk Status: Open Bug Type: *Configuration Issues Operating System: Linux Old PHP Version: 4.1.0 PHP Version: 4.1.0, 4.1.1 New Comment: I have sucessfully linked PHP4.1.1 to static libtool libraries with the following method: 1. ./configure in the 4.0.6 source directory 2. ./configure in the 4.1.1 source directory 3. copy the libtool from 4.0.6 to the 4.1.1 direcory 4. make 5. make install Obviously this is a little messy, but it does seem to work sucessfully. Regards, Glen Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-14 04:14:09] glen@designsolution.co.uk MySQL was installed from RPM's a while ago: MySQL-3.22.21-2C1 MySQL-client-3.22.21-2C1 MySQL-devel-3.22.21-2C1 The system is a Cobalt Qube 2: Linux qube.dessol 2.0.34C51_SK #1 Mon Nov 29 07:59:59 CET 1999 mips unknown By the way, I also tried linking with libmcal.a which is installed in /usr/local/mcal/lib/. I used the configuration option --with-mcal=/usr/local/mcal and configuration/compiling/installing went fine. However, when restarting Apache, I get: Cannot load /usr/lib/apache/libphp4.so into server: /usr/ lib/apache/libphp4.so: undefined symbol: mcal_close I don't know what's going on here, but it seems the *.a files are not being linked to correctly? There was no such problems with the 4.0.6 release which I compilied with MySQL and MCAL support with no problems. Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-13 23:55:23] sniper@php.net How exactly did you configure/compile/install Mysql ? And what linux distribution is this ? --Jani ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-13 06:18:31] glen@designsolution.co.uk I deleted the libmysqlclient.la file from /usr/lib/mysql and tried re-compiling, but still got the same error. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-12 12:45:29] sniper@php.net I guess you're getting the libtool bug I noticed myself too. Try deleting the .la file. --Jani ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-12 07:47:06] glen@designsolution.co.uk I have configured PHP with the following options: ./configure --with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs --with-mysql=/usr /usr/lib/mysql contains libmyclient.a and libmyclient.sa. Configuration and make goes fine, though I get the following warning: *** Warning: This library needs some functionality provided by /usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.la. *** I have the capability to make that library automatically link in when *** you link to this library. But I can only do this if you have a *** shared version of the library, which you do not appear to have. Install goes fine, but when I restart Apache ( 1.3.3 ), I get the following error: Cannot load /usr/lib/apache/libphp4.so into server: /usr/ lib/apache/libphp4.so: undefined symbol: mysql_free_result PHP 4.0.6 compiled from source and ran with no such problems. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=14452&edit=1
