As reported in Jamie Harris' thread <<PHP 5.2.5 Build Errors,?XML linking problem>>, I found that using the identical configure options, 5.2.4 configure and make behaved perfectly. Something in 5.2.5 configure has gone wrong as a result of compiling Apache (or zlib or something....). Whatever it was, it has not interfered with configure for 5.2.4. Maybe I should do a 'diff' on the two versions of configure? As for compiling MySQL I tried it a few years ago and gave up. It was an absolute pleasure to find I could take the latest binaries and compile it first time with no problems at all. Mike
