Here's is a fix for the 'cannot load libphp4.so: undefined symbol : uncompressed' error ala google and FAQTs.
http://www.faqts.com/knowledge_base/view.phtml/aid/5087 1. install zlib per the doc above. 2. run ldconfig. 3. make clean in your php directory. 4. configure ... php. 5. edit your makefile adding -lz to the line listed in the above doc. 6. make php. 7. make install. 8. create and save a testfile named phpino.php in your document root. this file should contain '<? phpinfo() ?>' without the quotes. 9. restart apache. (error should be gone) 10. open http://localhost/phpino.php this works for me.. charles ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, November 28, 2001 1:40 AM Subject: Re: [PHP-INST] Error: Restarting Apache w/ PHP as DSO on redhat 7.2 > Greetings Clacy, > Mind you, the experience I share here is *primarily* from *BSD. > However, I have a great deal of experience with Win(whatever) and > Linux as well.
