Hi Mike, I started to study the config.log file more in deep. The kick-out error was:
**** conftest.c -lmysqlclient -lmcrypt -lltdl -lresolv -lm -ldl -lnsl 1>&5 /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lltdl **** Then I visited http://mcrypt.hellug.gr/mcrypt/index.html an learned that I have to install not only libmcrypt but also mcrypt and libmhash. Afte installing libmcrypt it was essential to move into the "./libltdl" folder and type the following shell commands: > ./configure --enable-ltdl-install > make > make install After that configuring PHP with ./configure --with-apache=... --with-mysql=... --with-mcrypt=... worked. hurra Thanks a lot for your support Klaus "Mike Beck" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> schrieb im Newsbeitrag news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] klaus wrote: > Hi Mike, > > thanks for your response. > > Initially I just took: > ./configure --with-apache=... --with-mysql=... --with-mcrypt=... > > The trials including > --with-zlib-dir=... > or > --with-zlib=... > > also failed. > > Do you or anyone else have an idea? > What do you mean they failed? You gave --with-zlib-dir= with a correct path? Was zlib found during ./configure or did you get errormessages? Do you have the zlib-dev packages (however they are called in whatever distribution you are using) installed? -- Mike Beck [EMAIL PROTECTED]
