Re: AIX, PHP4 and core dump

It does all go! The secret (from Bill Stoddard, see http://www.phpbuilder.com/forum/archives/3/2001/01/1/102909), is when using APXS, to edit the 'libtool' script after running './configure' and add the following switch to both the 'archive_cmds=' and 'archive_expsym_cmds=' lines: \${wl}-bI:/path/to/libexec/httpd.exp Then 'make', 'make install', etc. The -bI switch specifies where the 'httpd.exp' file is, which tells PHP what calls have been exported and can be resolved at runtime - otherwise a segfault is caused when PHP attempts to call an Apache API.

Hi there, We are trying to build PHP4 under AIX 4.3.3 using gcc ./configure --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-apxs=/usr/HTTPServer/bin/apxs make make install It all compiles and installs. However httpd core dumps with a segmentation fault. We then tried (as per a posting on the list) building PHP with HAVE_ALLOCA undefined and defining C_ALLOCA (by tweaking the configure script) but still get the core dump. All help and suggestions would be appreciated.
