Hi Richard I’ve successfully installed php5 off your guide then I went back and tried adding the mcrypt and GD module. Those installed successfully but now that I try recompiling php I get the following error after MAKE

/usr/libexec/gcc/powerpc-apple-darwin8/4.0.1/ld: Undefined symbols:
_png_check_sig
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [libs/libphp5.bundle] Error 1

These are the configurations I used:

./configure –prefix=/usr/local/php5 \
–mandir=/usr/share/man \
–infodir=/usr/share/info \
–sysconfdir=/etc \
–with-config-file-path=/etc \
–with-zlib \
–with-zlib-dir=/usr \
–with-openssl \
–without-iconv \
–enable-exif \
–enable-ftp \
–enable-mbstring \
–enable-mbregex \
–enable-sockets \
–with-gd \
–with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local/lib \
–with-png-dir=/usr/X11R6 \
–with-freetype-dir=/usr/X11R6 \
–with-xpm-dir=/usr/X11R6 \
–with-mcrypt \
–with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql \
–with-pdo-mysql=/usr/local/mysql \
–with-mysqli=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config \
–with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs

Any idea what it could be. Thanks in advance.

FYI, on Snow Leopard I’m seeing a subfolder config in libtool, so the paths are:
cp /usr/share/libtool/config/config.sub .
cp /usr/share/libtool/config/config.guess .

I’m curious why you didn’t use macports and install php5-gd?

after ‘make’ and before ’sudo make install’ I issued the following commands and now it finished without errors:

mkdir -p /usr/local/include
mkdir -p /usr/local/bin
mkdir -p /usr/local/lib
mkdir -p /usr/local/man/man1

on a MacBook G4 running 10.5.6 I’m getting this error after ’sudo make install’

/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ./cjpeg.1 /usr/local/man/man1/cjpeg.1
install: /usr/local/man/man1/cjpeg.1: No such file or directory
make: *** [install] Error 71

Drew, I’m not an avid PHP coder myself and I haven’t tested the GD code myself but others ensured me this aproach worked for them. WIth the PHP configure fase we are referencing the X11R6 font stuff and everything compiled and ran wothout errors. Even on a fresh clean install of Mac OS X Leopard.

I would suggest adding the following code just before running ./configure from the gd-version directory. I always found it necessary on a fresh system.

sudo ln -s /usr/X11R6/include/fontconfig /usr/local/include
ln -s `which glibtool` ./libtool

Not sure why, but gd didn’t like it if i didn’t do this first.
