PHP4 Compiling Problem (with-dom)

Anon

Every tiem i try to compile php4 (4.0.4pl1) it function, but after i try to bind the php module into apache (restart apache) it fails with follow message:

Cannot load /usr/lib/apache/libphp4.so into server: undefined symbol: xmlXPtrNewContext

Here are my configure options (without "--with-dom" it functions):

./configure --prefix=/usr --bindir=/usr/bin --libdir=/usr/lib --with-exec-dir=%{libdir}/php/bin --with-mysql=/usr --with-imap --with-tiff-dir=/usr --with-jpeg-dir=/usr --with-png-dir=/usr --with-xpm-dir=/usr/X11R6 --with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs --with-openssl --with-imap-ssl --with-ttf --with-gdbm --enable-calendar --enable-exif --enable-ftp --enable-yp --enable-sockets --with-config-file-path=/etc/httpd --with-zlib --with-mcrypt --with-curl --with-ldap --with-gd --enable-ftp --with-ndbm --with-mm --enable-versioning --enable-memory-limit --enable-dbase --enable-shmop --enable-sysvsem --enable-sysvshm --enable-wddx --enable-filepro --enable-bcmath --with-gettext --with-pdflib --with-mcal=/usr --with-sablot --enable-trans-sid --enable-inline-optimization --with-mcrypt --with-qtdom

Any ideas?

System: SuSE 7.1, Apache 1.3.17, lixml2 (newest), qt (newest)

I had the same problem just yesterday and fixed it by specifying a prefix to the dom option :

--with-dom=/usr/local

Although that did allow me to build apache with php and everything else, I have found that the domxml functions still don't work.

Hope this helps you more than it helped me,

It appears that the compiling process is not an easy one, and alas, there are no good documentations around. I had the same troubles with it, I tried the following possibilities :

--with-dom=/usr/local

--with-dom-dir=/usr/local

--with-dom

but none of the above worked. May I suggest that, like someone posted on this forum, we try to use an older version of the libxml like the libxml 2.23.11 version (I tried with libxml2-2.3.8 version, and it did not work) ? I'll tell you about that if I succeed.

I pointed it to my actual source(--with-dom=/usr/local/src/libxml2-2.4.5) and it appeared to work fine. Well, that is for configure, except when I try to compile errors happen.

If anybody has some other thoughts please point them my way.

Thanks,
Shaun
