Description:
------------
I have successfully compiled php with the ibm_db2 extension on a box with the same OS.  I am trying to repeat the install on the production box and am getting an error when I run the configure on php.

Reproduce code:
---------------
I move the ibm_db2 directory to ext/ibm_db2 in the php source directory.  I remove the old configure and run ./buildconf --force from the php source directory.  It gives me some warnings about my autoconf version but completes successfully.  I run my configure statement:
./configure --with-mysql --with-apxs2=/opt/www/bin/apxs --with-IBM_DB2=/opt/IBM/db2/V8.1 --with-pdo-odbc=ibm-db2,/home/db2inst2/sqllib --with-gd=/usr/local --with-zlib=/usr/local --with-png-dir=/usr/local --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib --with-freetype-dir=/usr/local

Expected result:
----------------
I expect this to build successfully.

Actual result:
--------------
.

I use db2inst2 because this box had a db2inst1 user already on it.  If I remove the --with-pdo-odbc=ibm-db2,/home/db2inst2/sqllib the configure will complete successfully but it will not install db2 even though it still has the --with-IBM_DB2=/opt/IBM/db2/V8.1

[2006-11-07 11:39 UTC] kfbombar at us dot ibm dot com

You will have to ask the pdo_odbc project members for that issue specific to pdo_odbc.  

For the IBM_DB2 extension not being built/installed:

Can you provide the details from the configure and make where IBM_DB2 is being done?  Also, did you source the db2profile before the configure?

[2006-11-07 11:45 UTC] brent dot halsey at huntington dot com

Configure Command used: './configure' '--with-mysql' '--with-apxs2=/opt/www/bin/apxs' '--with-IBM_DB2=/opt/IBM/db2/V8.1' '--with-gd=/usr/local' '--with-zlib=/usr/local' '--with-png-dir=/usr/local' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib' '--with-freetype-dir=/usr/local' 

I was installing this as a user named webadm.  As that user I ran 'source /home/db2inst2/sqllib/db2profile' prior to running the configure statment.

[2006-11-07 11:49 UTC] kfbombar at us dot ibm dot com

Can you please provide the details (output, meaning the I/O output from the ./configure and make) of the configure and make where the IBM_DB2 extension is output?

[2006-11-07 12:00 UTC] brent dot halsey at huntington dot com

My linux admin should be running the config now and piping the output to a file.  I just checked the config.log and found the configure statement we are interested in.  There is no reference of ibm or db2 anywhere excepte for in the configure statment itself.  I'll post the output from the configure as soon as I get it.  Thanks.

[2006-11-07 15:28 UTC] brent dot halsey at huntington dot com

here is the output from the ./configure statement relative to IBM:
checking for IBM DB2 support... no

Why would that be?

[2006-11-07 16:41 UTC] kfbombar at us dot ibm dot com

A few questions:

Can you do an "ls -l" in your PHP "ext" directory and if the ibm_db2 directory is in there, can you do a "ls -l" in there?  Also, did you do a ./buildconf --force prior to the configure but after you put the ibm_db2 source directory in the PHP "ext" directory?

There are more files in this ibm_db2 directory than before because I tried compiling this with phpize since the static extension method wasn't working.

I put the "ibm_db2" directory in the "ext" directory prior to running ./buildconf --force.

[2006-11-07 16:52 UTC] kfbombar at us dot ibm dot com

Well, lets move on the the dynamic creation for ibm_db2.  When you do the following in the ibm_db2 source directory:

phpize
./configure --with-IBM_DB2=/opt/IBM/db2/V8.1
make
make install

What are the output of these commands?

[2006-11-08 07:38 UTC] brent dot halsey at huntington dot com

My linux admin got back to me and was able to run those commands successfully with no errors.  He said "There were no errors when running these commands."  Should we try to compile php now?

[2006-11-08 09:41 UTC] kfbombar at us dot ibm dot com

I am confused on what you are saying worked.  If you dynamic creation, compile, and install of the ibm_db2.so module, then include the ibm_db2.so extension in your PHP.ini and do a "php -m" to see if it is included.  Please let us know if this worked so we can close this bug.

[2006-11-08 10:59 UTC] brent dot halsey at huntington dot com

This appears to have fixed the problem.  I didn't realize that the ibm_db2.so was in the extensions directory.  We added the line to php.ini and the extension works fine.  I am having issues with the acutal db2_connect, but I think that has to do with the ibm_db2.instance_name=db2inst2 line not being in php.ini.  The linux admin should be adding this line and hopefully that will resolve all issues.  I will follow this post up with the results when I get them.
