Description:
------------
I am compiling PHP 4.3.3 on RH 9 Linux 2.4.21.  My configure is as follows:

./configure --enable-track-vars --without-mysql --with-mail --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --with-informix

And when I do make, this is what happens:

/usr/informix/lib/esql/libifgls.so: undefined reference to `__ctype_b'
/usr/informix/lib/esql/libifgls.so: undefined reference to `__ctype_toupper'
/usr/informix/lib/esql/libifgls.so: undefined reference to `__ctype_tolower'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [sapi/cli/php] Error 1

and then returns me to the prompt and PHP isn't finished compiling.  Any suggestions on how to make it compile?  I have PHP 5 compiled and working on the server, but I don't like using beta software on a production server, and am having a few problems with PHP 5 and some of our scripts, so I'd like to stick with PHP 4.3.3 because it works with our scripts on another server (which is solaris 7 with informix and PHP 4.3.2)  Thanks!

Oh, I forgot to add that I am running INFORMIX-SQL Version   7.30.UC6 nad I have the Client SDK, version 2.81 UC-1 which is the latest version of the SDK ( http://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/download/preconfig.jsp?id=2003-03-18+12%3A53%3A09.323902C&cat=&fam=&s=&S_TACT=&S_CMP= )

I found that if I use --disable-cli on my configure, it compiles fine, but I'd like to have the use of CLI, also.  I had to disable cli on php 5 as well to get it to compile.

Try this patch:

http://www.php.net/~jani/patches/bug25352.patch

(running 'autoconf' after applying it should be enough)
And of course, 'rm config.cache && ./config.nice'

Hello, I just tried compiling with php4-STABLE-200309091130 and I still get the same error.

See bug #23206 (this is not PHP bug)

If you want to compile php with --enable-cli, you should follow this way (excuse my poor english)

first : ./configure with all options that you need
then : create a file patch.c
----------------------patch.c------------------------
__const unsigned short int *__ctype_b;
__const __int32_t *__ctype_tolower;
__const __int32_t *__ctype_toupper;


void ctSetup()
{
__ctype_b = *(__ctype_b_loc());
__ctype_toupper = *(__ctype_toupper_loc());
__ctype_tolower = *(__ctype_tolower_loc());
}
-----------------------------------------------------
save this file in path_php_source/ext/informix/
edit path_php_source/ext/informix/ifx.c
and add ' #include "patch.c"' after '#include "php_ini.h"'

then type : make
You MUST execute ./configure before patch ifx.c !
