php and interbase compilation problem

[Diego]

Hello
I try to use Interbase Client with PHP to work with an interbase database.
I work on Solaris 8, with php 5.1.4 and apache 2.0.55.
So, i have to recompile my php with the option: "--with-interbase=shared,/opt/app/apache/SoftAnx/Interbase/7.5"
The compilation fails with the following error message :
...
checking for isc_detach_database in -lib_util... no
configure: error: libgds, libib_util or libfbclient not found! Check config.log for more information

In the config.log, I has the following error :
...
configure:49496: checking for isc_detach_database in -lib_util
configure:49515: gcc -o conftest -I/usr/local/include -g -O2 -D_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS -R/opt/app/apache/SoftAnx/Interbase/7.5/lib -L/opt/app/apache/SoftAnx/Interbase/7.5/lib -liconv -L/usr/local/lib -R/usr/ucblib -L/usr/ucblib -R/usr/local/lib/gcc/sparc-sun-solaris2.8/3.4.2 -L/usr/local/lib/gcc/sparc-sun-solaris2.8/3.4.2 -R/usr/local/lib -L/usr/local/lib conftest.c -lib_util -liconv -lresolv -lm -ldl -lnsl -lsocket -lgcc -lxml2 -lz -liconv -lm -lsocket -lnsl -lxml2 -lz -liconv -lm -lsocket -lnsl 1>&5

/* Override any gcc2 internal prototype to avoid an error. */
/* We use char because int might match the return type of a gcc2

char isc_detach_database(

The 3 libraries are wel installed and my LD_LIBRARY_PATH is correct...

Thanks for help

I've never used php, but based on what I'm reading here, it doesn't use
java, but rather uses the InterBase native client. That's fine, but it
first means you've posted to the wrong section. :-)

My hunch as to your problem here is the InterBase client simply is not
installed. Could that be the case?

Thanks for your answer.

The interbase native client is wel installed.
In windows machines you simply need to add a dll and restart your php-apache server...and it works.
On Unix symtem symtem you need to install the native Interbase client and to recompile the PHP server.
