You really are not reading the instructions carefully enough. Or perhaps
my writing is horrible. It says:
===
A popular choice is to build the Apache module version. In order to
build PHP as a dynamic module for Apache-1.3.x you have to first have
Apache installed. Assuming Apache is already installed, make sure
the shared object module is enabled. To check this, type: httpd -l
You should see something like:
Compiled-in modules:
http_core.c
mod_so.c
You will most likely have a lot more modules than what is shown here.
As long as mod_so.c shows up in the list, PHP should be happy.
Now, type: ./configure --with-mysql --with-apxs
If you get an error telling you that the apxs script could not be
found, look for it on your system and if you find it, provide the full
path to it as: --with-apxs=/path/to/apxs
You might also want other flags on this configure line. --with-mysql
is just an example.
===
Now why would you assume that you could build the Apache module version
without the --with-apxs flag?
