libphp5.so not generated

[sapna]

I have been battling with this for a while now, and was hoping someone who's faced a similar issue could help me out.

 

I had installed apache2 and php5 (from source) on my centos 5.5 system, and the php5 shared object got created perfectly fine at that time.

 

Then, I later realized that I needed curl support, so I recompiled and re-installed php, but, this time the shared object just does not get generated. And i dont get any errors either.

 

Here are the configure options I used for php:

./configure --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --enable-safe-mode --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-gd  --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib --with-png-dir=/usr/lib --enable-gd-native-ttf --with-ttf –with-freetype-dir=/usr/lib --enable-exif --with-openssl --with-curl

 

php version:php-5.2.13

apache version:httpd-2.2.15

 

Any help on this would be highly appreciated!

Thanks,

Sapna

Hi sapna

 

Did you find an answer to this issue?  I have the same problem. 

[sapna]

No, actually I did not :-( Was thinking of doing a fresh install, but have not gotten down to that yet. Please let me know if you find a solution.

I got a libphp5.so generated and php running from the command line.  (It's still not running in a browser though)

 

This is the page/code  that helped me out.
