Trouble Installing PHP & MYSQL

[frankgerlach]

I am experiencing problems when installing PHP5/MYSQL.
I did
./configure --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --disable-libxml
--with-zlib-dir=/home/frank/zlib-1.2.2

make
make install

The build process did not report any errors.

Now, I cannot find libphp5.so, which I would like to register with
Apache.

Can somebody tell me what went wrong ?

Thanks for your help !

I'm also having problems finding the apache module for PHP.
I'm doing the following calls

./configure --prefix=/local/web --enable-module=so
make
make install

I found out that one has to build apache from source and then do the
php build against the apache source build, using the --with-apxs2
option.
Like this:
../configure --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --disable-libxml
--with-zlib-dir=/home/frank/zlib-1.2.2
--with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --with-gd
After "make" and "make install" the shared lib (eg. libphp5.so) will be
placed in apache's module directory and will be loaded by apache when
doing a LoadModule statement in httpd.conf.
All this said, I still have trouble to build with jpeg enabled... Any
help on this is appreciated.

Well did you successfully build GD w/ jepg support? That has to be
working first. The GD readme was always enough for me to get it to compile.
Then recompile PHP and you should be okay.

Got it finally working.
That is my configure command line:
../configure --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql
--with-zlib-dir=/home/frank/zlib-1.2.2
--with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --with-gd --with-jpeg-dir
--with-png-dir
I had to copy the jpeg header files (like jpeglib.h) to
/usr/local/include in order to have it built.
