    ./configure \
    --prefix=/www/php \
    --with-config-file-path=/www/apache/conf \
    --with-apache=../apache_1.3.14 \
    --enable-ftp \
    --disable-debug \
    --with-unixODBC=/usr \
    --with-imap \
    --with-java \
    --with-mysql=/.usr \
    --with-pgsql=/usr \
    --with-mcrypt \
    --with-mhash \
    --enable-track-vars
    make
    mkdir -p /www/php/lib
    make install


Notice how I create the lib directory.
I didn't have to do this until I added the java support in.

If I don't create that directory, everytime I do a complete fresh install the java file becomes /www/php/lib as a file.

PS: Not related but.. I had read a post here awhile back saying that choosing your smtp server would be an option for unix platforms when 4.0.3 came out, but it doesn't. Any idea on a time frame for this?

Is anyone looking into this yet?

What happens if you leave --prefix out?

This test this was a waste of time, but I did it anyway (bad me).
 
Php default installs to /usr/local which has the system directory lib under it.
There for this problem would "Obviously", not exist.

However, remove the /usr/local/lib directory and you get the same problem.

Fixed in CVS now.
