Compiling PHP ~5.4.32 fails due to missing files

[Bryan Parker]

Relevant PHP bug: https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=66842

Compiling PHP 5.4.32 (I have not tested any others personally) using OLS' Compile PHP function results in a failure after compilation during install where it expects files that are no longer there.

Bottom of the log output:

You may want to add: /usr/local/lsws/lsphp5/lib/php to your php.ini include_path

/usr/local/lsws/phpbuild/php-5.4.32/build/shtool install -c ext/phar/phar.phar /usr/local/lsws/lsphp5/bin

**ERROR** Could not install PHP 

The files it wants are there in .1.in form, but a "make clean" that is ran just before compile removes the .1 files it wants which were created during the ./configure process.

I can get OLS to successfully compile 5.4.32 by commenting (or removing) the "make clean" line located within /usr/local/lsws/admin/html.open/utility/build_php/build_install.template (there is only one occurrence).

I don't think this omission would break anything long-term, but let me know if I'm wrong and what this is used for, if not just a habit.

Chmod lsphp5 folder to 0777, delete everything thats in it and compile again.

George,

I would appreciate a more detailed response rather than being told what to do without why I'm doing it, especially when it makes no sense given the circumstances, and advises using 777 on anything.

I got the same error. Actually, it turns out to be a bug in PHP. See https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=66842

The problem is that "make clean" deletes the .1 files, which are needed later by "make install"

My way round it was to comment out "make clean" in the buildphp_xxxxxxxxx.1.install.sh shell file that's called by /usr/local/lsws/phpbuild/buildphp_manual_run.sh

A more correct workaround is suggested by Barry Jaspan:

wrap these commands around make clean, which solves the problem:

find . -name '*.1' > /tmp/php-1.lst.$$
tar -cf /tmp/php-1.tar.$$ -T /tmp/php-1.lst.$$
make clean
tar -xf /tmp/php-1.tar.$$
rm /tmp/php-1.tar.$$ /tmp/php-1.lst.$$
