Make install fails on "apxs -i i -a -n php4 libs/libphp4.so
cp libs/libphp4.so /local/www/libexec/libphp4.so". The libs directory contains libphp4.a and libphp4.la, but not libphp4.so.

I've found a workaround for this problem. If I manually copy .libs/libphp4.so.0 to libs/libphp4.so, it seems to continue okay:

# make install
...
cp: libs/libphp4.so: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.
apxs:Break: Command failed with rc=65536
make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 1.
...
Stop.

Is there some way "make install" can do that copying step automatically?

This should be fixed in CVS< can you try a snapshot from snaps.php.net?

This is NOT fixed in CVS yet. It's a libtool bug and I'm trying to find
out how to fix it atm.

[2001-12-16 16:28 UTC] sniper@php.net

Don't have time to look at this anymore. And it indeed is a libtool bug.

I am trying to install PHP 4.1.1 on AIX 4.3.3. I have GNU GCC 3.01 installed

$ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/php \

Any update on resolution to this problem?? or a good workaround? I can not find lilphp4.so.0 as mentioned above.

[2002-02-02 13:45 UTC] gene dot rowe dot lix3 at statefarm dot com

Just tried the latest release from the CVS and got the same results. libphp4.so is not being created.

[2002-02-02 16:05 UTC] david-shafer at uiowa dot edu

Did you look for "libphp4.so.0" in the ".libs" directory? (Note the leading "."; it's a different directory than "libs")

[2002-02-12 04:39 UTC] vervoom at hotmail dot com

Have you got a fix for this yet?

[2002-07-11 04:38 UTC] derick@php.net

There were a lot of fixes done to the build system, the best way to check it is to try for yourself. I suggest you try the latest snapshot @ http://snaps.php.net/php4-latest.tar.gz

[2002-07-11 11:23 UTC] sniper@php.net

This is not fixed. But we know what the problem is and hope
to get it solved for 4.3.0 release.

[2002-09-30 17:12 UTC] steve at oseda dot missouri dot edu

Same problem.  AIX 4.3.3.10, GCC 2.95, PHP 4.2.3, Gnu Make 3.79

The directory "libs" has libphp4.a and libphp4.la only, the directory ".libs" has libphp4.a, .exp, .lai and .so.0 in it.

I have a workaround about this bag.
I have installed php 4.2.3 under Oracle AS9i on AIX 4.3.3.
The libphp4.so not is created by make because the libtool have a flag set to no.
The libtool is created by configure; before you launch make, edit libtool and set build_libtool_libs=yes.
After launched make, under .libs you find libphp4.so.0:move it under libs as libphp4.so and run make install.
So, php as apache module work fine.

[2003-02-25 00:43 UTC] sniper@php.net

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

In case this was a PHP problem, snapshots of the sources are packaged
every three hours; this change will be in the next snapshot. You can
grab the snapshot at http://snaps.php.net/.
 
In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up soon at
http://www.php.net/manual/.

In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show
up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites in short time.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.


It works now perfectly when using GCC.
Please test that it also works with the other CC too.
