the latest snapshot (php4-200211211430) also fails for me with the same errors.

[2002-11-22 16:03 UTC] iliaa@php.net

This is a fairly serious problem that should definately be resolved before 4.3.0 is released.
The following configuration options
/configure  --with-gd --enable-track-vars --enable-force-cgi-redirect --with-gettext --with-dom --with-zlib-dir=/usr/lib --enable-cli
Result in the compilation error that occured immidiately at the start of the compile process.

make: *** [ext/zlib/zlib.lo] Error 1

[2002-11-22 16:40 UTC] iliaa@php.net

It appears the problem is NOT gcc but rather the buildtools, the snapshot avaliable from http://snaps.php.net/ compiles fine. However, if I use:
autoconf version 2.54, automake version 1.7.1 and libtool version 1.4.3 to generate the PHP's configuration files from the CVS checkout the compilation fails.

[2002-12-03 10:12 UTC] ben at thelocust dot org

Hmm... I have updated to the latest of RedHats build tools, autoconf 2.53-8, automake 1.6.3-1, libtool 1.4.2-12, and I still cannot compile, and receive the same errors as above (with the latest snap, php4-STABLE-200212031430).  What version of the buildtools are used to successfully compile this?

[2002-12-03 11:53 UTC] derick@php.net

Recommended is:
autoconf 2.13
automake 1.5
libtool 1.4.2

(snapshots are generated with those too IIRC)

Derick

[2002-12-03 13:14 UTC] ben at thelocust dot org

i have downgraded to the suggested (or nearest suggested) versions of autoconf,automake, and libtool.  my versions are now: autoconf 2.13-5, automake 1.4p5-4, libtool 1.4.2-14.

my gcc version is still gcc 3.2-7 (redhat 8.0)

with the latest snapshot (php4-STABLE-200212031430), after a successful make distclean/configure, i run 'make', and receive this:

Which is the same as my previous error postings.

[2002-12-03 13:19 UTC] derick@php.net

Please rebuild configure like this:

rm configure
./buildconf

otherwise the wrong configure (generated with the old tools) is used.

Derick

[2002-12-03 13:42 UTC] ben at thelocust dot org

Thanks for the heads-up on rebuilding the configure, but alas I just tried your rm configure; ./buildconf suggestion, and the very same build errors occurred.

php4-STABLE-200212111430
red hat 8.0 
gcc version 3.2.1
autoconf version 2.13-5 (downgraded from more-current 2.56-1)
automake version 1.6.3-1
libtool version 1.4.3-2
zlib version 1.1.4-4

./configure  --with-pgsql --with-gd --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --enable-track-vars --enable-force-cgi-redirect --with-gettext --with-gd --with-dom --with-zlib-dir=/usr/lib --enable-cli


i tried this configure/make with autoconf 2.56-1 first (on a freshly un-tarred php4-stable snap) and it failed as it had before.  then after downgrading to the recommended autoconf 2.13 and doing a 'make distclean; ./buildconf', i was still receiving make errors as previously stated in this bug report.

is this a gcc issue?  i have tried the recommended build tools, but have not tried (nor wanted) to downgrade my gcc to get PHP to build.

here is my make output with autoconf 2.13

I added the patch to zend_hash.h as specified in this bug: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=15217, (adding #include <stdargs.h> to zend_hash.h), and the seemed to rectify my initial problems, however, now I am getting the following warnings:

from a number of different files.

[2002-12-13 08:13 UTC] ben at thelocust dot org

i finally found out what was wrong -- i was missing 'cpp0', which apparently was not required by the Redhat Rawhide gcc packages as it should have been.  without it, the configure script assumed that i wasn't using GNU gcc, and was failing left and right.

sorry for the trouble!
