Hi,
I'm trying to compile PHP 4.1.2 with the following:
root@localhost:/home/luiz/php-4.1.2# ./configure --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs --with-mysql=/usr/local --enable-sockets --enable-track-vars --with-gd=../gd-1.8.4

My Apache is 1.3.23, the configure returns this message:

Sorry, I was not able to successfully run APXS.  Possible reasons:

1.  Perl is not installed;
2.  Apache was not compiled with DSO support (--enable-module=so);
3.  'apxs' is not in your path.  Try to use --with-apxs=/path/to/apxs
The output of /usr/local/apache/bin/apxs follows
Usage: apxs -g [-S <var>=<val>] -n <modname>
       apxs -q [-S <var>=<val>] <query> ...
       apxs -c [-S <var>=<val>] [-o <dsofile>] [-D <name>[=<value>]]
               [-I <incdir>] [-L <libdir>] [-l <libname>] [-Wc,<flags>]
               [-Wl,<flags>] <files> ...
       apxs -i [-S <var>=<val>] [-a] [-A] [-n <modname>] <dsofile> ...
       apxs -e [-S <var>=<val>] [-a] [-A] [-n <modname>] <dsofile> ...
configure: error: Aborting
root@localhost:/home/luiz/php-4.1.2# 

I guess that the configure command is trying to use apxs by a irregular way, because i typed the correctly path to apxs in the command.

I tried the 4.2.2 PHP's version too, i have the same error message. And the 1.3.26 Apache's version...

Waiting for replys,
