Thanks for your help. The make works now. The problem I had was the install
instructions in the book ""MySQL/PHP Database Applications". The first
./configure for apache says --prefix=/path/to/apache , with the instruction
"the path where you would like Apache installed. The second ./configure also
specifies /path/to/apache. But it should have said for the first ./configure
/path/to/apache/sourcefiles and for the second ./configure /path/to/apache.
Anyway, it all worked out fine in the end.
regards
