Hello This seems odd... I am trying to upgrade to PHP 4.3.9 (by recompiling with the same options I used for 4.2.1) and it all looks OK, no errors etc, except that the libphp4.so file is simply not created. The libs dir looks like this after running 'make': root@cabernet /home/jesse/src/php/php-4.3.9 # ls -l libs total 9826 -rw-r--r-- 1 root jesse 10039290 Nov 27 23:16 libphp4.a

(I've also tried removing those last two lines, make clean, make but still the same prob) I get the following libtool warning when running make, towards the end: /bin/sh /usr/home/jesse/src/php/php-4.3.9/libtool ... -o libphp4.la *** Warning: inter-library dependencies are not known to be supported. *** All declared inter-library dependencies are being dropped. *** Warning: libtool could not satisfy all declared inter-library *** dependencies of module libphp4. Therefore, libtool will create *** a static module, that should work as long as the dlopening *** application is linked with the -dlopen flag. When I run make install I get an error, of course: root@cabernet /home/jesse/src/php/php-4.3.9 # make install

Am I doing something wrong? Why is no libphp4.so being created? Thanks very much Jesse

Hi Jesse, I had what sounds like the same problem on my FreeBSD server, try this solution: 1. run your configure script as it is 2. Open the libtool file that is created in the php source directory 3. find the variable definition: deplibs_check_method= 4. edit it to read: deplibs_check_method="pass_all" 5. run make I'm almost 100% sure that solved my problem, give it a go anyhow.

So I changed: # Method to check whether dependent libraries are shared objects. deplibs_check_method="unknown" to # Method to check whether dependent libraries are shared objects. deplibs_check_method="pass_all" This has worked! Thanks Brad. I wonder what the cause of the problem is. libs dir now looks like: root@cabernet /home/jesse/src/php/php-4.3.9 # ls -l libs/ total 3554

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root jesse 3615533 Nov 28 10:58 libphp4.so Great, after a 'make install' and 'apachectl stop ; apachectl startssl' all is good with the world (except that I've now broken IMP, which I see is because PEAR has dropped support for isWarning() ... but you get that).
