Description:
------------
I am trying to install PHP 5.2.8 but getting an error after executing the ./configure command.

Is --with-xml no longer an option?  I used the ./configure --help and couldnt locate for it.  I am trying to install IBM Rational BuildForge and one section asked me to install PHP 5.2.1 but I thought 5.2.8 is the newest version so used it.  I did google PHP configure issue --with-xml and zero result of the issue I am having.
I did see someone posted a different issue and used the --with-xml option.

Or --with-xml only available with 5.2.1?

Please advice.


Reproduce code:
---------------
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/php-5.2.8 --with-mysqli=/usr/bin/mysql_config --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache-2.2.11/bin/apxs --with-ldap --enable-mbstring --enable-shmop --with-xml --with-zlib

Actual result:
--------------
It ran all the way without complain til the end:

I was playing even with the error message about no such option of --with-xml and did a compile which went ok, but the make test came back with failures and asking me to mail the txt file to qa-reports@lists.php.net.

Here is the summary of the make test:

My question is, should i skip the --with-xml and proceed with the make test?  even there are failures and asking me to submit the txt report, can I just 'make install' and install just like that? Would it work or am I missing something?  Sorry I am new with PHP and would like some advice to proceed.  Thanks in advance.

This might help:

# ./configure --help |grep xml 

It's --enable-xml like it has always been..

Hi,
Thanks for the response, I have used the following syntax:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/php-5.2.8 --with-mysqli=/usr/bin/mysql_config --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache-2.2.11/bin/apxs --with-ldap --enable-mbstring --enable-shmop --enable-xml --with-zlib

The configure and 'make' went well this time.

During the 'make test', it came back with these:
=====================================================================

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Exts skipped    :   52
Exts tested     :   27

Do I really need to send it to qa-reports@lists.php.net as it said at the end for the txt file?

Can I run 'make install' and proceed even with errors? or the test are supposed to fail?

Please advice.

Since I havent seen any reply I fooled around with the error and went ahead to 'make install'.  It looks like the failed test was a part of the testing process and to send email to qa-reports@lists.php.net was optional.

I wish when making test, would mention about it as I am new to PHP.

Whoever is tracking it, please close it.

Thanks.
