It also logs a BUNCH of stuff to a log file in that same directory. Re-direct the output and/or look in that log file for WARNING or ERROR messages from the configure. configure considers some command-line options such as --jpeg-dir as "non-fatal" and cheerfully continues on its merry way, giving you a "valid" PHP compile with, errr, not quite what you asked for. :-^ I've long considered this a "bug" personally, though have never persuaded anybody else to my way of thinking... Most likely, the --jpeg-dir and/or the --with-gd are not quite right, and you just need to adjust a directory name somewhere, or put in some symlinks so "configure" finds the stuff it is looking for where it expects to find it, instead of where you (or your RPMs) put it. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm
