Re: problem compiling with mcrypt support

Hello...

I'm having a problem installing php with mcrypt support. Here's my setup:

debian linux Apache/1.3.19 php 4.1.2 libmcrypt 2.5.0 (alternately tried mcrypt 2.2.6 and libmcrypt 2.4.22)

I got libmcrypt to install, but when I try to configure php "with mcrypt" I get problems.This is what I type to configure php: ./configure --with-mcrypt=/home/myuserdir/php/

Hmm, so mcrypt is in your home directory? I installed mcrypt in the default location (/usr/local/lib), then compiled php with, simply --with-mcrypt (no =SOME_DIR). Have you tried that? Although, maybe it's an issue with ld.so.conf ... sorry, Configure isn't my strong piint

I have tried it without specifying the directory, but I think if I don't it says it can't find it. I'm using my home directory because I'm "virtual hosting" and if I don't, I get permission errors. What is "ld.so.conf", and where would I find it?
