Build problems with upgrade

[dmclark]

Hi,

i am on a shared vserver running freebsd, & i'm trying to upgrade from php 4.0.6 to 4.3.2.

I am using the configure from my phpinfo, which is:
'./configure' '--with-apxs=/usr/local/www/bin/apxs' '--with-config-file-path=/usr/local/www/etc' '--enable-versioning' '--with-system-regex' '--disable-debug' '--enable-track-vars' '--without-gd' '--without-mysql' '--with-zlib' '--with-imap=/usr/local' '--with-mysql=/usr/local' '--prefix=/usr/local/www' 'i386--freebsd4.4'

I am in as su

make runs no problems

When i do make install, i get:

Installing PHP CLI binary: /usr/local/www/bin/
\Installing PHP CLI man page: /usr/local/www/man/man1/
Installing PHP SAPI module
[activating module `php4' in /usr/local/www/conf/httpd.conf]
cp libs/libphp4.so /usr/local/www/libexec/libphp4.so
cp: /usr/local/www/libexec/libphp4.so: Permission denied
apxs:Break: Command failed with rc=1
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/home/usr111074219/php-4.3.2.

Any ideas?

thanks

Hi,

did you stop apache before trying to make install ? The file might be locked if apache is running. Besides that check the permissions of that file.

hi,

i tried both with no luck.

I am not a linux guru, but i think its one of twto things:

The libexec dir is all symlinks, not actual files.
should i be using ~in the path?

did you 'make install' as root? I had similar problems using sudo with limited permissions....

try su root -c "make install"
