Solaris/Apache/PHP

Hi I am trying to install PHP on a Solaris box which is running: SunOS 5.9 Generic_112233-06 (sun4u architecture) Apache comes pre-installed on these systems. However, when I ran into problems compiling PHP 4.3.2, so I removed this version of Apache and downloaded Apache 1.3.27. I compiled this with the following command lines: # ./configure --with-layout=GNU --prefix=/usr/local/apache --enable-module=most --enable-shared=max --enable-module=so # make # make install However when I tried to compile PHP using: # ./configure --with-zlib --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/sbin/apxs # make clean # make I got ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to sapi/cli/php collect2: ld returned 1 exit status *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `sapi/cli/php' but scrolling backwards I also found ld: warning: file /usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.a(libmysql.o): wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64 Thinking that this may be some kind of library problem, I moved /usr/local/bin to the front of my $PATH, but this made no difference. I then figured that it may be a 32/64-bit library problem, so I did # setenv CFLAGS "-m64" # setenv LDFLAGS "-mcpu=v9 -m64" # ./configure --with-zlib --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/sbin/apxs # make clean # make # make install However, when I try to start Apache, which in the httpd.conf file has:

LoadModule php4_module        libexec/libphp4.so

I get # httpd Syntax error on line 236 of /usr/local/apache/etc/httpd.conf: Cannot load /usr/local/apache/libexec/libphp4.so into server: ld.so.1: httpd: fatal: /usr/local/apache/libexec/libphp4.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64 Thinking that maybe Apache needs to be compiled as 64-bit too, I re-ran my Apache ./configure after having setenv CFLAGS and LDFLAGS as above, but it immediately crashed out with: ld: fatal: file /usr/ucblib/libucb.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32 ld: fatal: file /usr/lib/libresolv.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32 ld: fatal: file /usr/lib/libsocket.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32 ld: fatal: file /usr/lib/libnsl.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32 ld: fatal: file /usr/lib/libelf.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32 ld: fatal: File processing errors. No output written to libproxy.so which hardly suprised me. So where do I go from here? Colin -------------------------------- C. R.
