Hello.

I had a problem running Apache with PHP module.

Apache and PHP compiles without any error, but if I enable the PHP module, I get this error message:

# /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start
Syntax error on line 236 of /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf:
Cannot load /usr/local/apache/libexec/libphp4.so into server: ld.so.1: /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd: fatal: relocation error: file /usr/local/apache/libexec/libphp4.so: symbol dn_skipname: referenced symbol not found
/usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start: httpd could not be started
 
Apache works without PHP module fine, but with PHP module not.

I found in the PHP configure script log these two lines:
checking for dn_skipname in -lresolv... no
checking for __dn_skipname in -lresolv... yes 

It looks like the compiled PHP module still uses dn_skipname instead of __dn_skipname. It is maybe a 'configure' script error. I found in dns.c a function call to dn_skipname, so I have change it from dn_skipname to __dn_skipname and then run 'make' and 'make install'

Now runs Apache with PHP module.



PHP configure line:
# ./configure --with-mysql --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs

Apache configure line:
# ./configure --enable-shared=max --enable-module=most
