Don't compile GD. Your version of PHP already has it. I told you that in your other forum post:

http://www.phpbuilder.com/board/showthread.php?s=&threadid=10277488

Also, is there a reason you are not including the path to your MySQL directory at this part:

Install PHP:

./configure --with-mysql

I also told you that in your other post:

so what i should do to solve the problem ???

i didn't install mysql yet so i make it the default directory

rachel2004

You need to install MySQL first, just like you did Apache.

After you install Apache and MySQL, then you need to install the three gunzip files that I mentioned in your other post. I"m not going to copy and paste them for you in this post.

After you finish that, then you can install PHP.

But first, start with MySQL and Apache installations. Let me know if that is a problem and I will try to help, but you need to also take my advice (or the advice of others) to heart if you want further support. Otherwise, I am trying to suggest to you how to solve your problem, but you don't do it, and then you ask for help.

I do not have all of the answers, but I can only help you if you want my help.

ramez_sever

thanks man for your help
i will try to install mysql first

then i will come back later for your advice

Here are instructions for installing MySQL on RH 7.3:

shell> groupadd mysql
shell> useradd -g mysql mysql
shell> cd /usr/local
shell> gunzip < /path/to/mysql-VERSION-OS.tar.gz | tar xvf -
shell> ln -s full-path-to-mysql-VERSION-OS mysql
shell> cd mysql
shell> ./scripts/mysql_install_db
shell> chown -R root .
shell> chown -R mysql data
shell> chgrp -R mysql .
shell> ./bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql &

And for Apache 1.31 on RH 7.3:

shell > gunzip < /path/to/apache_version-tar.gz | tar xvf –
shell > ln –s apache_version_directory apache
shell > cd apache
shell > ./configure - -prefix=/usr/local/apache - -enable-module=so
shell > make
shell > make install

And for the three gunzip files I mentioned in the other post:

Go to the directory where you downloaded jpegsr.v6b.tar.gz
shell> gunzip < /usr/local/jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz | tar xvf –
Go to the directory where you downloaded zlib-1.2.1.tar.gz

a. shell > gunzip < /usr/local/zlib-1.2.1.tar.gz | tar xvf –
b. shell > ln –s /usr/local/zilib-1.2.1 zlib
c. shell > ./configure
d. shell > make test
e. shell > make install

Go to the directory where you downloaded libpng-1.2.5.tar.gz
a. shell > gunzip < /usr/local/libpng-1.2.5.tar.gz | tar xvf –
b. shell > ln –s /usr/local/libpng-1.2.5 libpng
c. shell > cd libpng
d. shell > cp /usr/local/libpng/scripts/makefile.linux makefile
e. shell > make test
f. shell > make install

Last, here are instructions for PHP configuration. Of course, substitute your own paths:

shell > gunzip < /path/to/php_version-tar.gz | tar xvf –
shell > ln –s php_version_directory php
shell > cd php
shell > ./configure - -with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql \
- -with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs \
- -enable-magic-quotes \
- -enable-track-vars \
- -enable-trans-sid \
- -with-xml \
- -disable-short-tags \
--enable-ftp \
--with-gd \
--with-zlib-dir=/usr/local/zlib \
--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local/jpeg-6b \
--with-png-dir=/usr/local/libpng

shell > make
shell > make install

If you want to follow my configs exactly, just know that I install everything into /usr/local directory. You will need to create the same type of sybolic links as I have as well.

ramez_sever

i did what you wrote

but when i tried this command

===================

./configure --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs --with-sybase=$SYBASE/OCS --enable-magic-quotes --enable-track-vars --enable-trans-sid --with-xml --disable-short-tags --enable-ftp --with-gd --with-zlib-dir=/usr/local/zlib --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local/jpeg-6b --with-png-dir=/usr/local/libpng

it's give me an error

configure: error: mysql configure failed. Please check config.log for more information.

what do you think the error
or should i ignore it and conteniue

ramez_sever

and why when i install mysql i didn't say make and make install

even the php??? you didn't mention these two commands

rachel2004

Because MySQL runs a script:

shell> ./scripts/mysql_install_db

ramez_sever

when i try make in mysql directory

its give me an error

make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.

rachel2004

Then at this point, you may be better off learning about each of the products and learning how to install each of them one at a time.

It would be too difficult for me to know how to solve each problem you are running into when I don't know completey what you are doing.

Maybe someone else will have better help for me, but my suggestion would be to spend some time reading the manuals or getting a good introductory book, which explains in greater detail what to do than could be done in newsgroup postings.

ramez_sever

i did what you told me step by step

rachel2004

Yes, you did and I tried to help you each step of the way, but at this point, you may be better off with a book or reading the manuals.

mhalloran

When you get this error:

make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop

it means that the configuration never succeeded. When you configure a program, it creates a "make file" that is used to install the program.

Every step of installing a program is critical and you can't move on unless the preceding step succeeds.

configure (options)
make
make install

You'll probably find that configuring the program will fail more than the other steps. When it does, read the errors carefully (scroll up to where they first start - one small error can trigger lots of them) and try to satisfy whatever the program is bitching about.

You have to successfully install MySQL then Apache and then PHP.

The first time I put together a server, I used these instructions:
http://e-gineer.com/instructions/index.phtml

They are somewhat dated now but I find that the author does a great job at explaining things.

Maybe someone else can post some good and current on-line tutorials for you.
