Compiling php 5

Compiling php 5

[Roland Swingler]

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone has managed to get php 5 compiled under
Cygwin? I am currently trying with 5.1.4. Trying to compile it as an
apache2 module (with no other configure flags), both configure and
make go fine, but when I do make install it complains about not
finding libphp5.so.

So after googling for a bit I find these instructions -
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-12/msg00093.html and try
following them, but make now chokes when compiling ext/standard/dns.c

I decide give up on the module and try making the cgi version,
disabling all extensions. Doing make test, it still chokes on the dns
bit.

Errors below...

Does anyone have any suggestions about what to do about this? I'd also
be interested in workarounds/hacks that any C programmers could
suggest to me - (i.e. what I could do to disable the dns functions).

I've also found elsewhere that dns is one of the "hotspots" in
compiling things for cygwin, but I haven't found any resources
detailing how to solve any of the problems, so if anyone knows where I
could find out about that, it would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Roland

I have never tried building php, but ...

The DNS problem can be solved by building ISC's bind (just disable IPv6, it
compiles fine with it but Cygwin doesn't have support for that), then just point
your php build to those libraries (and headers)... they are static libraries so
there should be no problem.

Or, just installing Cygwin's minires-devel package.

I'm actually working on trying to package this, with reasonable success.
