Hi,
I'm attempting to install PHP 5.2.8 on CentOS 5.2 x86_64. The glibc iconv
doesn't seem to function very well, leading to a bunch of failed tests when
running 'make test' (see below). After a bit of Googling I stumbled upon
http://nl2.php.net/manual/en/intro.iconv.php which suggests to install libiconv
instead of relying on glibc's iconv, when things go wrong.
My configure line reads as follows:
./configure --prefix=/chroot/apache2/php --with-apxs2=/chroot/apache2/bin/apxs
--disable-cgi --with-zlib --with-gettext --enable-sockets --with-xmlrpc
--with-xsl --with-config-file-path=/php/etc --with-mcrypt --enable-mbregex
--with-gd --with-mime-magic=/usr/share/mime/magic --enable-mbstring=all
--with-openssl --with-mysql=/chroot/mysql --with-curl=/usr/lib64 --enable-zip
--with-freetype-dir=/usr/lib64 --with-png-dir --with-jpeg-dir
--with-libdir=lib64 --with-gnu-ld --with-iconv=/usr/local/lib
which yields the following result:
--------
checking for iconv support... yes
configure: error: Please reinstall the iconv library.
--------
Configure runs fine when I omit the path in the --with-iconv directive, but
that will use glibc's iconv, which results in the following failed tests when
running make check:
--------

htmlentities() test 15 (setlocale / KOI8-R)
[ext/standard/tests/strings/htmlentities15.phpt] (warn: possibly braindead libc)
--------
Any thoughts/suggestions/ideas on how to solve this would be greatly
appreciated!

Although this not strictly a PHP question you could try to update first.
#yum update
Just in case something went wrong
