Hellow,

Compile of RC4 is ok on HP-UX (11.00), but when I launch apache I've the following error :

/usr/lib/dld.sl: Unresolved symbol: PQftable (code) from /mypath_to_apache/libexec/libphp5.so

I've not this problem with php 5.1.2

Tell me if and what do you need for additional information.

Thanks

What version of PostgreSQL client library are you using?

#4.1 Ilia Alshanetsky (Homepage) on 2006-09-15 12:32 (Reply)

PostgreSQL(libpq) Version 7.2.1

#4.1.1 dactar on 2006-09-15 12:38 (Reply)

This is rather old version of PostgreSQL, the simplest solution would be to get a slightly more recent version.

The fix will be shortly in the CVS, basically we forgot to check for the availability of the PQftable() function.

#4.1.1.1 Ilia Alshanetsky (Homepage) on 2006-09-15 12:55 (Reply)

I'll wait for the correction in the CVS because I can't upgrade at this time PostgreSQL.

Thanks

The patch is in the CVS now.

#5.1 Ilia Alshanetsky (Homepage) on 2006-09-15 15:49 (Reply)

openssl vs imap on HP-UX (and only HP-UX) with shared libraries

I've to change in line 47912 of configure file :

&& test -s conftest\${ac_exeext} && (./conftest; exit)

by

&& test -s conftest\${ac_exeext} && chatr +s enable conftest && (./conftest; exit)

otherwise the test failed.

explication (from man page of chatr) :

+s flag : Control whether the directory path list specified
with the SHLIB_PATH environment variable can be
used to locate shared libraries needed by the
program. The two flag values, enable and disable,
respectively enable and disable use of the
environment variable.

Any chance to have a OS condition in the configure about this ?

Thanks ;D

sys_get_temp_dir() is missing from 5_2 and nobody knows how it is not there

#10 Cristian Rodriguez (Homepage) on 2006-09-24 02:41 (Reply)

It was never planned for 5.2 and is not there. Release news work by inclusion, not exclusion. If it is not explicitly mentioned in the changelog, it is not part of the release.
