ID: 42339 User updated by: codeslinger at compsalot dot com Reported By: codeslinger at compsalot dot com -Status: Bogus +Status: Open Bug Type: *General Issues Operating System: SimplyMEPIS Linux 6.5 PHP Version: 5.2.3 New Comment:
The sources used are fine, I downloaded them direct from php.net and verified the md5. The documentation on the options is incomplete. I tried --without-apxs because even though it is not documented, it is symmetrical to the option --with-apxs which is documented, but that did not work. Also, not saying anything about apxs at all did not work either. Everything I tried, the ./configure failed. After entering this bug and thinking about it some more, it occurred to me to try --disable-apxs and did discover that it was the only thing which produced the desired behavior of a CLI only build. And that's when I changed the category to a documentation bug. Anything else results in the error: "Sorry, I was not able to successfully run APXS." I get that error even though I have not specified --with-apxs. php by default is trying to build the apxs version even when it is not requested. I note in the change log that there have been some recent changes to the "make". perhaps this problem is newly introduced. Also my actual goal was to build both CGI and CLI at the same time, but for the purpose of this bug I decided to simplify and isolate as much as possible. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-20 07:48:19] [EMAIL PROTECTED] This is not true. Simply doing './configure --disable-cgi' gives you CLI. There isn't such option as '--disable-apxs'.. You propably used unclean sources. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-18 17:46:21] codeslinger at compsalot dot com this is actually a documentation problem. the correct command should be './configure' --enable-cli --disable-cgi --disable-apxs ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-18 17:36:23] codeslinger at compsalot dot com Description: ------------ There are many options for PHP, such as ncurses, which are not compatible with phpN-mod.so But when trying to build a CLI only config, it fails with an error message that APXS is not enabled. Reproduce code: --------------- I tried many variants, here is the simplest: './configure' --enable-cli --disable-cgi --without-apxs2 --without-apxs Expected result: ---------------- Expected: No errors Note: the following command *does* work './configure' --enable-cli --disable-cgi '--with-apxs2=/usr/bin/apxs2' Actual result: -------------- Configuring SAPI modules checking for AOLserver support... no checking for Apache 1.x module support via DSO through APXS... 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/src/php-5.2.3/no follows ./configure: line 4396: /usr/local/src/php-5.2.3/no: No such file or directory configure: error: Aborting ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=42339&edit=1
