Article:		PHP 4.3 and Mac OS X
Subject:		"./configure --with" does not seems to work
Date:		2004-02-12 01:15:12
From:		jeanloui
I have followed all the steps... and those in http://developer.apple.com/internet/macosx/php.html Downloaded php 4.3.4 (not from entropy, but the standard) Downloaded all the Fink stuff (great!) No errors during ./configure --with-xxx "make install" without the old php 4.1.2 backup (sorry) Restart the Apache and... When I go to info.php, the 4.3.4 is running but it does not recognize all the configure commands (only '--with-apxs') Its a strange situation, cause I'm running mysql and some php/mysql sites (PostNuke) work all right but some recent scripts stop to work... What can be happened? Does the "make install" create the php.ini (and place it at the appropiate dir) the or I must do something (re-place it) manually? I have placed the "php.ini-recommended" in usr/local/lib and renamed it php.ini I'm under Mac OS X 10.2.8 and mysql 2.3.2, Apache 1.3.29 (Darwin) Thanks!

  I have "fixed" some of this with the "BAD" php.ini option of
  register_globals = On
  
  (I must upgrade my scripts :(
  -----
  But php.info still does not recognize the "--with-xxx" configures...
  
  He IS managing the mysql, but he does not run the gd graphic libraries (for instance)
  
  * Is there a way of forcing this ./configures whit declarations in php.ini ?
  
  * Must I ./configure --with-xxx (All libraries) again?
  
  * And every time that I ./configure , must I "make", "sudo make install" and change the php.ini ?? Or there is a short way for all that ??
  
  * Is there an istruction in ./configure for knowing internally WHAT libraries are enabled?
  
  You see: I still need the help!
  
  (and I'll post here if I fix it)
  
  Thanks!

  You should do a: "make clean" before you reconfigure anything if you want phpinfo() to display the correct configuration options.
  
  After the configure, you must do a "make," "sudo make install," and "sudo apachectl restart." The configure command only tells PHP how it should be configured when you build it using make, it doesn't make the changes itself.
  
  You don't need to copy or edit php.ini.

  I have cleaned all and upgraded to 4.3.6 and builded and istalled png, jpeg and xml libraries

  
  Now my Configure Command looks like this:
'./configure' '--with-xml' '--with-zlib' '--with-gd' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local' '--with-png-dir=/usr/local' '--with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs'and I can "imagecreate" png files!

  
  - I'm still running well the mysql 3.23.49 although no "--with-dbase" nor "--with-msql" configure commands appear: How is it possible?

  Thanks for all your great support!

  I get this kind of errors in error_log:
  
  [error] PHP Notice: Use of undefined constant
[error] PHP Notice: Undefined variable:
[error] PHP Notice: Use of undefined constant http_referer - assumed
  
  And all this constants and variables are defined !
  ------
  Also there are 3 strange new lines:
  
  Processing config directory: /private/etc/httpd/users
Processing config file: /private/etc/httpd/users/prunila.conf
Processing config file: /private/etc/httpd/users/xavierbl.conf
  
  * Why is Apache checking the users dirs?
  
  I only want to use one ! httpd.conf at
  private/etc/httpd/
  
  ... and the only good line:
  
  [notice] Apache/1.3.29 (Darwin) PHP/4.3.4 mod_perl/1.26 configured -- resuming normal operations

  The "use of undefined constant" lines usually appear when you reference an array element inside double quotes.
  
  The Apache config lines are there to allow users to customize their personal home directories configuration without giving them access to the main httpd.conf file, which is owned by root. It's a feature, not a bug. I think you can disable this by editing out a few lines at the bottom of the master httpd.conf file, if it really bothers you.
