Actually this came up in RedHat 6.x and 7.x servers. I had included all the recommended library paths to /etc/ld.so.conf and was VERY confused when it didn't work. The errors on all the RedHat platforms were exactly the same. I knew it was a library issue but which one :D > Check their bug archive, if you haven't already ... sometimes you can > fix this with compiler flags in Makefile. Doh! Ok.. I didn't check there but I'm sure it probably had been reported by now. Looking at the php install newsgroup there are many who have experienced this problem. > Lest anyone get the wrong impression, I'd like to make it clear that > the PHP developers are very responsive.

[;-)] I've heard nothing but great things about PHP which helped spark my interest. I've seen some screen shots of what people on freshmeat.net are building and thought I'd give it a go. So far very positive results with it. Maybe someday I'll be in a good position to contribute :D
