Installation error: /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -linsck

North64

Hello guys,

when I configure php-4.2.3 with sybase-ct support, i get the following error on make and make install:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -linsck
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: [libphp4.la] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/data/php/php-4.2.3/php-4.2.3'
make: [all-recursive] Error 1

I've sybase 11.9.2 installed.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Are you on BSD?

What is your CONFIGURE line?

Also make sure your SYBASE env var is set.

Sorry, I should've indicated the OS before. The OS is Red Hat linux 7.3.

Configure line is just '--with-mysql=[DIR like /usr]' and '--with-sybase-ct', and it wouldn't work. but if I use --with-mysql=' and '--with-sybase=', and it works.

Thanks.

You should use --with-sybase-ct=/opt/sybase

Thanks Matt,

below is exactly what I used, and it works:
./configure i386-redhat-linux
--with-freetype-dir=/usr --with-gettext --with-openssl
--with-pspell --with-regex=system --with-config-file-path=/etc --with-xml
--enable-bcmath --enable-ftp --enable-magic-quotes --enable-safe-mode
--enable-sockets --with-mysql=/usr --with-pgsql=shared --enable-ucd-snmp-hack
--with-unixODBC=shared --enable-dbx --enable-mcal
--with-sybase=/opt/sybase-11.9.2 --enable-pic --with-png-dir=/usr --with-zlib
--with-gd --enable-gd-native-ttf --with-jpeg-dir=/usr --with-png
--with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs

but, if I change the above configure line of '--with-sybase=/opt/sybase-11.9.2' with '--with-sybase-ct=/opt/sybase-11.9.2'
and it does not work.

I thought the libs from sybase would work with the option of --with-sybase-ct=/opt/sybase-11.9.2

That is odd, I don't know what to say but I'm glad it works!
