I am trying to use PHP 5.0.4 on Solaris 9 (Sparc) with SDK 2.81.UC3. When I fire up httpd I get the following error: Cannot load /usr/apache/libexec/libphp5.so into server: ld.so.1: httpd: fatal: r elocation error: file /u/informix/lib/esql/libifsql.so: symbol ifx_checkAPI: ref erenced symbol not found environment: IFX_LIBDIR=-L/u/informix/lib -L/u/informix/lib/esql LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:/usr/lib:/var/local/lib:/opt/SUNWspro/lib:/usr/openwin/lib:/u/informix/lib:/u/informix/lib/esql:/u/informix/lib/tools/ INFORMIXSQLHOSTS=/u/informix/etc/sqlhosts INFORMIXSERVER=dev1IFX_INCDIR=/u/informix/incl/sql INFORMIXDIR=/u/informixIFX_LIBS=/u/informix/lib/esq/libifsql.a \\ /u/informix/lib/libifasf.a \\ /u/informix/lib/esql/libifgena \\ /u/informix/lib/esql/libifos. \\ /u/informix/lib/esql/libifglsa \\ -lgen -lgls -lm -ldl /u/informix/lib/esql/checkapio \\ /u/informix/lib/esql/libifglxa PATH=.:/usr/local/bin:/usr/xpg4/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/u/bin:/opt/SUNWspro/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/ccs/bin:/u/informix/bin:/usr/tbin:/usr/openw in/bin:/opt/VRTS/bin:/usr/local/samba/bin Thanks Gary Quiring

Which CSDK did you use. I had a similar error and downloaded the newest CSDK (2.90) "Gary Quiring" <gquiring@msn.com> schrieb im Newsbeitrag news:mktb91dp1rlb0sor5f7jnp3n1ncmt0gpo8@4ax.com... >I am trying to use PHP 5.0.4 on Solaris 9 (Sparc) with SDK 2.81.UC3.

You must recompile your ESQL/C application to link the new release-version of the shared library. If you do not use esql to link one of the shared Informix general libraries with your ESQL/C application, you must explicitly link the checkapi.o file with your application. Otherwise, ESQL/C might generate an error at link time of the form: Anyone have ideas on how to fix this?

I suspect that the trouble is that the PHP build is not attempting to link the relevant object file - ifxchkapi.o or some such name - as well as the libraries. If you look at the linker line for an ESQL/C program with shared libraries, you see that the object file is also linked; and I'd be relatively surprised, given the error message, if the PHP module is built with the object file included. Work out how to build/link the PHP shared object with the esql script - or how to get the object file included in the link line. -- Jonathan Leffler #include <disclaimer.h> Email: jleffler@earthlink.net, jleffler@us.ibm.com Guardian of DBD::Informix v2005.01 -- http://dbi.perl.org/
