RE: apxs not found?

["Chip Burke" <cburke@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The configure script is simply 

./configure --with-apxs2=/usr/sbin/apxs --with-lib64=lib64

I stripped it down to nearly no options to simplify trouble shooting.

And yes, I have the Fedora supplied httpd and httpd-devel packages installed
via yum.

Thanks!

What are your PHP configure script parameters?

Are you compiling PHP against the Fedora supplied httpd, or 
one you compiled yourself?
