Hi, I am running FreeBSD 4.3-RELEASE, and am attempting to compile MySQL 3.23.39, Apache 1.3.20, and PHP 4.0.6 from scratch. All of them compile successfully, and here is how I configured all of them: MySQL - standard ./configure && make && make install....no special options specified: installed in /usr/local Apache - ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache --enable-module=so PHP - ./configure --with-mysql=/usr/local/ --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs toucan# cd /usr/local/lib/mysql toucan# ls libdbug.a libheap.a libmerge.a libmyisam.a libmysqlclient.a libmysqlclient.la libmysqlclient.so libmysqlclient.so.10 libmystrings.a libnisam.a toucan# cat /etc/ld.so.conf /usr/local/lib/mysql I have run /sbin/ldconfig, done a 'make clean' on php, and reinstalled it with the same options, however, the following error continues to haunt me: toucan# ./apachectl start Syntax error on line 205 of /www/Apache/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load /usr/local/apache/libexec/libphp4.so into server: Shared object "libmysqlclient.so.10" not found ./apachectl start: httpd could not be started This is driving me crazy. I have uninstalled everything, and redone it again with the same results. I am baffled, and others I have talked to are baffled too. I am about to cry with defeat.... can anyone help me? ANY help appreciated, whether it be software support or moral support, LOL.
