hi all, Apologize if php-dev is inappropriate, but since this is a compile problem I thought it would be relevant. I have cc:d the sapdb-general list as they should be aware of these compile problems (and that is where I first asked for help). I would like to construct a guide for people using SAPDB with PHP in real multi-machine "enterprise" situations and will do so when I resolve this compile issue:
I'm trying to compile PHP 4.1.1 on RH 6.2 w/SAPDB. Yes, I will upgrade to 4.1.2 very soon :) Problem: During make, I get: /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lsqlrte Which is surprising because I rsynced my copy of sqlrte into /opt/sapdb/depend/lib from a "real" install I have on another machine. (the "real" is a full, current server install... on this machine I only want the client libs) I also used the tarball from ftp://ftp.sap.com/pub/sapdb/bin/patch/sapdb-odbc-linux-i386-7.3.0.21.tgz which is (unless I am wrong, please correct me) fairly useless because it does not contain that sqlrte lib that is required by PHP when compiling --with-sapdb=/opt/sapdb/interfaces/odbc/lib anyway, despite having included the correct path(s): /opt/sapdb/interfaces/odbc/lib /opt/sapdb/depend/lib in ld.so.conf and having run ldconfig... I still get /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lsqlrte What's worse (and much more confusing): root@core lib> ld -v |grep sql /// i.e. no results from this search, which lists all known libs root@core lib> ldconfig -v |grep sql libsqlod.so => libsqlod.so libsqlrte.so => libsqlrte.so libsqlcls.so => libsqlcls.so // note that ldconfig _is_ tracking these libs. AGH! I have never seen an instance where ldconfig knows about something ld doesn't. I tried coping all files to /opt/sapdb/interfaces/odbc/lib just to give it a shot, and that didn't work (though I'm not surprised it didn't). I have also tried a number of variations of the --with-sapdb path just to ensure it isn't me being a complete idiot. what should I try next? or better, does anyone know how to solve this problem? PS: PLEASE email me directly.
