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!

TIA

Peter.
