[snip] > What are some possible reasons when I don't have libphp5.so? By default the database that the 'locate' command uses is updated once a day. If you have only just installed something and have not updated that database then 'locate' will have no idea about the new files. Use: find / -name libphp5.so Better still, when inside the php5 source directory use: configure --help | less to see where exactly the installation will place your files. -- Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.biz Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design & Hosting * Internet & Intranet Applications Development * ------------------------------------------ Search the list archives before you post http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-general ------------------------------------------ /* The world has many unintentionally cruel mechanisms that are not designed for people who walk on their hands. -- John Irving, "The World According to Garp" */ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
