We have two paid licenses. The first installation, on a 32 bit VPS went OK and is running smoothly, no hiccups for months.

The second installation of lsws on a 64 bit dedicated server went fine, but PHP compilation is giving me grief. The server is CentOS 5.4, pretty bare.

configure: error: libjpeg.(a|so) not found.

Yum lists libjpeg:

libjpeg.i386 6b-37 installed
libjpeg.x86_64 6b-37 installed

It's also in /usr/lib - where I added a further symlink to make sure it works:

# ls -l /usr/lib/libj*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Apr 27 16:58 /usr/lib/libjpeg.so -> libjpeg.so.62.0.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Feb 15 13:31 /usr/lib/libjpeg.so.62 -> libjpeg.so.62.0.0
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 134268 Jan 6 2007 /usr/lib/libjpeg.so.62.0.0

This is the config I'm trying:

--with-libdir=lib64 --with-mysql-sock=/tmp/mysql.sock --with-zlib --with-gd --enable-shmop --enable-track-vars --enable-sockets --enable-sysvsem --enable-sysvshm --enable-magic-quotes --enable-mbstring --with-iconv --with-mhash --with-mcrypt --with-mysql --with-pear --with-xml --with-simplexml --with-zlib --with-enable-inline-optimization --disable-debug --with-dom --with-dom-xslt --with-sqlite --with-curl --with-php-soap --with-soap --enable-soap --enable-pdo --with-mysql-pdo --with-pdo-mysql --with-kerberos --with-gif --with-jpeg --with-png --enable-jpg --enable-png --enable-gif --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib --with-png-dir=/usr/lib --with-litespeed --with-openssl --enable-ftp --enable-calendar --enable-json --with-imap --with-imap-ssl

That's with PHP 5.2.13 - I can't go up to 5.3.latest yet

I also simply tried --with-jpeg-dir=/usr

I actually need mailparse somehow in there too but will leave that for later.

Why isn't it finding libjpeg when it's clearly there?

Bloody typical, isn't it. Post that after pulling your hair out and re-reading my own post I notice the with-libdir=lib64

# cd /usr/lib64
# ln -s libjpeg.so.62.0.0 lib

Now it works. Or at least, on to libpng.

I still wonder though, why the need for this symlinking? Seems like an awful lot of manual labour in order to get it working.

Edit: I'm now stuck on:

make: *** [ext/gd/libgd/gd_jpeg.lo] Error 1

Edit: yum installing a few devel packages further, it now compiles.
