Hi, I'm installing Apache/MySQL/PHP on a RedHat 9 box, to replace a similarly configured RedHat 7 box.
I did a clean install of RedHat 9. I installed Apache from source (v1.3.27); no problems. I installed MySQL from RPM's (v4.0.13); no problems. Trying to build PHP (v4.3.2) from source; can't get beyond ./configure Initially ./configure would go thru a large number of test before halting like this ======================================= <many tests snipped...> checking for sys/utsname.h... yes checking for sys/ipc.h... yes checking for fopencookie... yes configure: error: can not run test program while cross compiling ======================================= Having read all the docs I could get, FAQs, Usenet archives and mailing list archives the best idea I could find was delete ./configure and recreate it with buildconfig. I did that and now ./configure halts like this (the complete output) ======================================= checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking for gcc... gcc checking for C compiler default output... a.out checking whether the C compiler works... configure: error: cannot run C compiled programs. If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'. See `config.log' for more details. ======================================= The common theme is cross compiling; but I'm not trying to cross compile. The compiler is gcc (v3.2.2). I did find a PHP bug database entry which matched the second sceanrio above. But there was no details on what caused it and it ends with "Fixed in current CVS". Only that was Feb 2002. Any ideas are welcome at this stage. I'm stumped!
