Hi, Main question: Should I post the contents below as a bug
report ? I am new to Debian (but have had some unix experience in the
past) Need to patch php4 ext/mssql/php_mssql.c in order to call
stored procedures from MS SQL (For recipy & reason for this: see http://www.devarticles.com/c/a/PHP/Executing-Microsoft-SQL-Server-Stored-Procedure-from-PHP-on-Linux
). I use “apt-get source php4”, “apt-get build-dep php4“ and dpkg-buildpackage to build.There are several obstacles that are easely overcome while running dpkg-buildpackage in the source php4-4.4.4 dir, these are listed as minor bugs under * below.However, it all stops when the cgi-build dir comes to the linking stage with the message: libtool: link:
`ext/openssl/openssl.lo' is not a valid libtool object openssl.lo, because it is the first file in the link
list – all .lo files under cgi-build/ext are empty. This is not the case
with apache-build and apache2-build extension, linking here works. The cause of this is that the generated Makefile compile
statement in cgi-build differs from apache(2)-build’s Makefile: Example from apache(2)’s (working): /bin/sh /usr/local/src/php4-4.4.4/apache2-build/libtool

&& echo > ext/standard/array.lo It is obviuos why from these examples that the problem
is that the Makefile for cgi-build is not correctly generated and probably easy
if one knows where to fix it ( I have not found where). A workaround I will try
is to edit the Makefile, but the root cause here: Should probably be adressed as a bug in the php source
package at the Debian bug page?, Which is the reason I post this here. Also if there are any other solutions, please let me know. It would also be an idea to fix the php_mssql bug in
php ( I know this is not the address for that – the article in the link
is from 2003….) *: other “bugs”: 1) All config.* files are deleted (cleaned away) and
reported missing initially. Solution: re-install these and go on, flag dpkg-buildpackage
with –nc hereafter 2) libtool not found in the xxx-build dirs when these are
compiled. Solution: link in /usr/bin/libtool Gunnar Skogen Laycan Solutions AS |
