I should know that. I remember the good old days when thing were created on SunOS and then ported.
Looks like I was missing a couple of packages. Seems it should have complained.
Thanks for the link. I'll check it out.

Topic: building PHP with Mysql or moving databases from mysql to postgres (3 replies, posted in Programming)
I'm trying to build a new apache with mod_perl (and Embperl) and php, to replace an old machine.
It's a Sun, running Solaris 10, gcc 3.4.6, apache 1.3.39, mod_perl 1.30, Embedded perl 2.3.0, php 5.2.5,
mysql 14.7 Distrib 4.1.22.
I configured mod_perl and Embperl first and it's working.
The old Solaris 8 system with php4 running the forum had a newer version of mysql than what's installed
in Solaris 10's /usr/sfw, so I installed mysql (from sunfreeware.com). So my config of php is like this:
./configure --with-apache=../apache_1.3.39 --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql
It goes through the compile and then comes up with:
/bin/sh /src/http/grinch/php-5.2.5/libtool --silent --preserve-dup-deps --mode=link gcc -I/usr/local/include -g -O2 -prefer-non-pic -static -rpath /src/http/grinch/php-5.2.5/libs -L/usr/ucblib -L/usr/local/lib/gcc/sparc-sun-solaris2.10/3.4.6 -L/usr/local/mysql/lib
.
.
.
-lxml2 -lz -lm -lsocket -lnsl -o libphp5.la
copying selected object files to avoid basename conflicts...
make: *** [libphp5.la] Error 255
and bombs out.
Any ideas on this? I've given some other arguments (like where zlib is) and I get wrong architecture (32 vs 64 bit).
My alternative, is that I have another server that is also running punbb with postgres as the backend.
Is it possible to pull the data out of mysql and put it into Postgres?
Thanks,
Paul.
