Hello agian; I have been gripping about php not producing libphp5.so for use as a DSO with Apache on FreeBSD v 6.2 >> good news >> I solved it. By re installing the system and starting all over again. After reading the output of ./configure in the php source dir, it was reporting that it could not find a compatible version of Bison. I cannot say that that is THE cause, but whatever it was re installing solved it. I did not get any responses so there is no one in particular to thank but thanks all, Apache is free software and what works is far greater in volume and value than what does not Now if only we could get to the developers of the human (user level) mind, maybe we could debug that and be better off.
