RE: [PHP] PHP Installation question

I have zlib-1.2.1.1-i486-1. Whether that is zlib-devel or zlib-dev I have no
idea, and not sure how to find out.

Sort of figured out the MySQL problem, but now I get an error when I run
'make'. This is not a biggie, but the other problem I need to get resolved.

Thanks

Hi,

I am trying to install vBulletin and keep getting this error: Fatal error:
Call to undefined function: gzinflate().

The only thing I can find on this is that zlib needs to be configured
with PHP at compile time. So I reinstalled PHP using the following:

./configure --with-mysql --with-apache=../apache_1.3.36 --with-zlib
--with-gd make make install

The above finishes with no error.

I rebooted, but still get same error, and zlib or gd doesn't show up
in my phpinfo output. zlib is installed, and from my understanding gd
is included with PHP, all the other libraries for gd are also
installed. So what am I doing wrong?

Check if you have zlib-devel or zlib-dev package installed. You need this to
be able to compile support into other applications.

No idea how you do this on slackware.

Also try specifying the path to zlib:

--with-zlib=/usr for example.

Also, how do I find out where something is installed? i.e. zlib. If I
do a search on it I get hundreds of hits...

No idea about slackware. Do a search or ask a slackware list/forum.

Last. In the above ./configure line I get a message from PHP saying I
am using the built in version of MySQL - if I point it to the actual
MySQL source directory I get the following error.

configure: error: Cannot find libmysqlclient library under
../mysql-5.0.22

Install the mysql-dev/devel &/or mysql-client packages most likely.

Or point it to the right directory. You need to point it to the base of the
mysql package. Eg if mysql is installed in /usr/local/mysql (so binaries are
under /usr/local/mysql/bin & libs are in
/usr/local/mysql/lib) then

--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql
