Problem installing PHP 5.2.6

[David List]

Could anyone here please help me figure out why my attempts at
installing PHP 5.2.6 do not work? I don't even know where to begin
looking for causes.

All goes well when I issue "configure" and "make", but when I issue
"make test", I get this output:
Build complete.
Don't forget to run 'make test'.
make: [test] Error 139 (ignored)

If I issue "make install" anyway, I get a dysfunctional PHP
installation. Even "php -v" gives me a segmentation fault.
My configure options are these:
--prefix=/usr/local/php --with-config-file-path=/usr/local/php/etc
--with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs --without-pear --with-gd
--with-curl --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql
--with-pdo-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-jpeg-dir=/usr
--with-png-dir=/usr --with-freetype-dir=/usr --with-zlib-dir=/usr

Oh, and before anyone considers pointing that out: I am well aware of
the php.install group at the news.php.net server. As I have pointed in
another thread in this group I am completely unable to post to any group
at that server.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
David List

Are you sure that this flag is pointing to the correct apxs version? I
would expect something like /usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs...

Since apache2.2, it is just "apache" I think. But i'm unsure.

What did your output from make test show? Are you sure there weren't
any errors in it?

"which apxs" gives me this:
/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs

I gather that I should then set the configure option to this:
--with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs

Is that wrong? Thank you for your answer.

Yes, as mentioned there is one error (and that's all I get!). Please see
above. I don't get anything specific to work with when I Google for that
error code in a PHP context.

Any ideas?

OK, sorry, I misunderstood. I thought this was from your make install.
Now I see I read it wrong.

What version of gcc are you using? I suspect it's an older one - and
may be causing problems.

Depends on whether you are using Apache2. If you using Apache from the
1.x branch, the line should read:

--with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs

Is this too old?

sol:~# which gcc
/usr/bin/gcc
sol:~# gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-linux/2.95.4/specs
gcc version 2.95.4 20011002 (Debian prerelease)

I am already looking into installing a newer version, but would still
like to hear your opinion on the output above.

I'm not, and if I try using that configure option, the configure script
complains about finding a 2.x Apache HTTPD, and the configure option
being for the 1.x versions.

Thank you for your answer.

That's pretty old - over six years. I'm currently running 4.1.1-21 and
considering upgrading.
