From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating system: Solaris 7 PHP version: 4.0.6 PHP Bug Type: PostgreSQL related Bug description: Bad subdirs assumed in configure and in make reproduceable - probably an easy fix during ./configure and later (after I thought I fixed things) in the make, the php install kept having trouble finding my install. postgresql was installed --prefix=/usr/local/pgsql/7.1.2/, and that path was supplied to the program ($i). However, it looked like that it assumed that libraries and such were not immediately in that path. For example, it looks in $i/lib/pgsql and $i/lib/postgresql, where my path was (I though predictable) $i/lib. I did a "ln -s /usr/local/pgsql/7.1.2/lib /usr/local/lib/pgsql" and other but that didn't work. I mucked around with the (impressive) config files adding paths and that only gave limited progress. I eventually did "ln -s . pgsql" in lib and other relevant places and got much further. Then, in make, failure again, as the header file couldn't find the include. I added a hard path to the build/rules_common.mk (I believe the variable was DEFS). I hope this helps. Personal note, I hopped on IRC (efnet) to try and get some advice. Even though I asked an informed and intelligent (IMHO) question, I still got the condesending knee-jerk responses. I have now been conditioned to a) never ever hope for any help from irc (especially the ef) and b) never research an issue fully before asking a question. If you've done your research, you've spent TONS of times getting caught up, just to find out you know more than who you're asking for help. However [James] was friendly and helpful, more so than anyone.
