I just wanted to let you know that I have successfully built Apache 1.3.17 and PHP 4.04pl1 as a DSO on Mac OS X Public Beta 1H39 (AKA Darwin).

The problem was that the configure script for PHP was trying to create a file in the ./pear directory named 'pear' where a directory named 'PEAR' already exists. Of course, since Mac OS X uses the HFS+ disk format by default (case preserving, case insensitive) this is not allowed.

I poked around a bit and figured the best solution was to make sure the file configure creates doesn't conflict with the directory. I chose the file name 'pearfile' for lack of a more creative and meaningful name.

Steps to fix: (This requires editing text files. If you are unaware of all that this entails, you prolly shouldn't be doing it.)

./ = php 4.04pl1 source directory

./configure
Line 8172: change pear/pear to pear/pearfile

./pear/Makefile.in
Line 89: change phpize php-config pear to phpize php-config pearfile
Line 126: change pear.in to pearfile.in
Line 127: change pear/pear to pear/pearfile

./pear
Rename or cp pear.in to pearfile.in


After that, a ./configure does what it is supposed to, even with the --with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs line

Now if I could just build openssl in to 1.3.17 with no problems...

You da man!!

Your next mission should you choose to accept is to compile MySQL so that it can shutdown properly. If you are killed or captured during this mission we will disavow any knowledge of your existance.

Cool!

Will it let you configure with --with-ftp
?????

Maybe I'll give it a shot...

Any chance you could post your modified source and save us all some trouble...

or better yet, if I could just get a .pkg file...
