Apache-1.3.19 compiles clean under gcc-2.95.3 with:

$ ./configure --prefix=/opt/apache --enable-module=so
<junk deleted>
$ make
<junk deleted>
# make install
<junk deleted>

Apache starts cleanly and generally works fine.

PHP4.0.5 compiles clean under gcc-2.95.3 with:

$ ./configure --prefix=/opt/php --with-apxs=/opt/apache/bin/apxs --with-mysql=/opt/mysql
<junk deleted>
$ make
<junk deleted>
# make install
<junk deleted>

Howver when I stop Apache and start it back up again, it doesn't start.  It dumps core.  When I rem out the LoadModule directive for the php module in httpd.conf, Apache starts up fine.

[ FYI: it's MySQL 3.23.34a (--prefix=/opt/mysql --with-pthreads) ]

Any suggections on how to troubleshoot it ?  If you have a use for the core, I can send it to you.  More info:

RS/6000-43P/132
AIX 4.3.3 (maintenance update 8)
gcc-2.95.3

Only other software installed on the system is GNU make-3.79.1 and bash-2.04.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

On systems that use glibc-2.1.x there is a bug in glibc that prevents a binary not linked against pthreads to dynamically load a shared library that is linked against pthreads.  Perhaps this problem also exists on AIX?  Try linking your Apache httpd against libpthreads.

Tried recompiling everything with IBM Visual Age C v5.01.  No change.  I also tried linking with the pthread library for the httpd binary, like rasmus@php.net said to try, but no luck.  Quick question: is AIX on the "supported" list ??  Is this supposed to work ??

There is no "supported list".  But, obviously operating systems that are more common end up getting more attention and more testing.  AIX is near the bottom of that list.

Somehow, I'd guessed that AIX would finish low on the "supported list".  One note, for anyone that's stuck with this config -> I installed iPlanet Web Server 4.1SP7, to see if maybe NSAPI would work, and I got problems that were much like the ones with Apache.  BUT -> when I didn't specify a web server to support, I got a "normal" binary for PHP, which I could use as a CGI interpreter.  One comment about this though, when a script starts with "#!/opt/php4/bin/php", that was displayed at the top of the web page, but what was below worked fine (in this case, "<? phpinfo(); ?>").

Any idea how to get rid of that ??  (removing the text broke the script, and I got nothing but the content of the php file with no execution).  That would give a "valid" solution for AIX people.  (I guess installing Linux on the RS6000 would work too, but that's such a pain...)

This behavior sounds very similar to #4630.

Tried the new php-4.0.6RC1 that's supposed to play nice with AIX 4.3.3.  Didn't work either.  This looks similary to #4630, but if 4.0.6RC1 fixed #4630, then I have a new problem...  Going to try a couple of other things.  Is there a reference implementation that the developers use for AIX that I can emulate ?

This should be fixed in PHP 4.0.6. Please try the latest
release candidate:
