ID: 39197 User updated by: lzsiga at freemail dot c3 dot hu Reported By: lzsiga at freemail dot c3 dot hu Status: Open Bug Type: *Compile Issues Operating System: AIX PHP Version: 5.1.6 New Comment:
Let me summarize the problem in three steps: When compiling PHP5 on AIX: 1. If you want to get dynamically loadable shared object (generally this is your first goal) do not use GNU-ld. The default AIX linker will give you the AIX-compliant 'libphp5.so' within 'libphp5.a'. 2. If you want to get standalone executable (generally this is your second goal) you have to edit one of the files 'Makefile', 'configure' or 'sapi/cli/config.m4' as described in bug #39187. 3. If you are using such an exotic platform then Prepare for trouble (And make it double). Now will someone please close this bug.

If you *** really care for shared libraries, you may want to modify your PATH *** so that a non-GNU linker is found, and then restart. no checking dynamic linker characteristics... aix5.2.0.0 ld.so checking how to hardcode library paths into programs... unsupported checking whether stripping libraries is possible... no checking if libtool supports shared libraries... no checking whether to build shared libraries... no checking whether to build static libraries... yes ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-10-19 14:51:49] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Not enough information was provided for us to be able to handle this bug.

For some strange reason the problem occures only when I set environment variable LD to the GNU-ld. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=39197&edit=1
