Install issue: undefined symbol: php_escape_html_entities

[sean.blaes]

I compiled php5 from source with the following configure options:

../configure --with-mysql --disable-xml --disable-libxml
--disable-xmlreader --disable-xmlwriter --disable-dom
--disable-simplexml --without-pear
--with-config-file-path=/etc/php5.ini --with-apxs2

However, I can't get apache to start afterwards, as I get the following
error:

Cannot load /usr/lib/httpd/modules/libphp5.so into server:
/usr/lib/httpd/modules/libphp5.so: undefined symbol:
php_escape_html_entities

I've googled for this and searched the mailing lists and documentation,
but short of tearing into the source code, I can't find any info on
php_escape_html_entities, much less why the symbol would be missing...

Any ideas would be much appreciated.

I believe apxs2 has some dependencies in the xml extenstions; try to run
configure with xml/libxml support enabled.

I am having the same problem on Ubuntu with the following config
options:
./configure --with-gd --with-ldap --with-tidy --with-mysql --with-curl
--with-zlib --with-apxs --with-xml --with-libxml --enable-xml
--with-dom
I get the same error message...

I was having the same problem on rhel4 so then I did a;

../configure --disable-all --prefix=/www --with-apxs2=/www/bin/apxs
--disable-cgi --enable-so

which worked.

So then I followed up with

../configure --with-curl [etc, etc, etc] --prefix=/www
--with-apxs2=/www/bin/apxs --disable-cgi --enable-so

just for the modules that I needed and it worked. I don't know if it
is a make file problem or something else.

I have it working now (i think).

php-5.1.4 # make clean

php-5.1.4 # ./configure --with-gd --with-ldap --with-tidy --with-mysql
--with-curl --with-zlib --with-apxs --with-xml --with-libxml
--enable-xml --with-dom

php-5.1.4 # make

php-5.1.4 # make install

Thanks for your help...

--enable-so fixed it for me :)

I had the same problem with almost the same configuration as [e-mail]

./configure --disable-libxml --disable-xml --disable-xmlreader --disable-xmlwriter --disable-dom --disable-simplexml --without-pear --with-gd --with-zlib-dir --with-jpeg-dir --disable-cgi --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --enable-so

Thanks
