Trying to compile PHP 4.2.2 under Red Hat 7.2...

[Admiral LSD 0]

and not getting very far. It bombs out with the following error every time:

 

Code:

make[3]: *** [php_functions.lo] Error 1make[3]: Leaving directory `/tmp/php-4.2.2/sapi/apache2filter'make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1make[2]: Leaving directory `/tmp/php-4.2.2/sapi/apache2filter'make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/php-4.2.2/sapi'make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

 

Any idea what I could be doing wrong?

had LSD been paying attention he would have noticed the fix was just a few rolls of the scroll wheel away...

Edit the file sapi/apache2filter/php_functions.c and jump down to line 93.

You'll see a bit that looks like this:

 

#if !MODULE_MAGIC_AT_LEAST(20020506,0)

ADD_STRING(boundary);

#endif

 

Change the "MODULE_MAGIC_AT_LEAST" bit to read

"AP_MODULE_MAGIC_AT_LEAST". The former is deprecated and

expands to "this macro shouldn't be used" or something like

that.

 

It's possible that there are other places where this needs to change, too.

 

After having done that and watching as it compiled without incident I then proceeded to perform a make install whereby it told me something about an "error recursive." Fixing that was simple too: you have to run the make install with the -i (ignore) parameter. Now that it seems to be installed properly, time to set about testing it
