Compiling PHP - Header file troubles

Anon

I am trying to compile PHP on Mandrake 7.2 and am having some problems.

./configure --with-apxs --with-mysql --with-gd

Configure goes fine. The error pops up during make. It looks like a library problem. Any suggestions?

Try a newer PHP.

But why on Earth do you compile it yourself? - Your PHP needs are very simple, so Mandrake's set of PHP-packages will serve you very well. Also, by using Mandrake's RPMs, you will have a more orderly system (package systems like RPM have some very nice features for checking software integrity and preventing future dependency problems).

Thanks for your reply.

I found the extra modules I needed after I posted this and everything is working fine. I didn't see them before and actually didn't realize that I could compile modules for php. Kind of a cool feature.

Problem solved for now.

How did you fix it, I have the same problem?
