if doing a:
./configure --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-zlib --enable-ftp \
--enable-gd-native-ttf --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs \
--enable-libgcc --with-xml --enable-sockets --enable-track-vars \
--with-ldap=/usr/local/ldap --with-java=/usr/j2se --enable-trans-sid \
--disable-magic-quotes --with-imap=/usr/local/imap-2001a \
--with-openssl
does not work in solaris. they try this.
create a file called config.inc containing the following. note that
there are no newline character here.
--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-zlib --enable-ftp
--enable-gd-native-ttf --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs
--enable-libgcc --with-xml --enable-sockets --enable-track-vars
--with-ldap=/usr/local/ldap --with-java=/usr/j2se --enable-trans-sid
--disable-magic-quotes --with-imap=/usr/local/imap-2001a --with-openssl
then do a:
./configure `cat config.inc`
this is a crufty solution but it works in most cases and you do not need
to write
type the whole crappy line.
btw, solution A will work is you run /bin/bash as your default shell in
solaris. most probably you are not.
