been using 4.33 general distrib ok, but for a problem in GD, and though id upgrade to the latest cvs to see if the problem had been eliminated.
used the same configure line as before, however now openssl is not found.
it appears that this is a problem frequently expirienced looking on news groups etc, ie libssl not found.
after much debugging it looks like the test script does not seem to take any notice of the path to ssl specified,.
copied in the older general distrib 4.33 configure script and it works no problem.
i guess the above configure script has not been tested with openssl in a none default location.
heres my configure script.
./configure --prefix=/opt/OSSIphp --withapxs2=/opt/OSSIapache/bin/apxs --enable-embed=TYPE=shared --enable-force-cgi-redirect --enable-discard-path --enable-fastcgi --disable-ipv6 --with-openssl=/opt/OSSIssl/ --with-zlib --with-mysql=/opt/OSSImysql --with-gd --enable-gd-native-ttf --withjpegdir=/opt/OSSIjpeg/ --with-png-dir=/opt/OSSIpng --with-ttf=/opt/OSSIfreetype
i tend to use all seperate compiled contrib software to a project, so that upgrades to a key element shared do not impact all the apps on the server.
