[Mediawiki-l] help with mediawiki in chrooted env and GD library

[James Miller]

Hello,

I hope this request for help isn't too 'off-list'.  I have setup a LAMP
server in a chrooted environment and mediawiki (latest release) is working
except it can not find the GD libraries (which I have in the chrooted
environment).

/jail/www/usr/lib/libgd.a
/jail/www/usr/lib/libgd.la
/jail/www/usr/lib/libgd.so.2.0.0
/jail/www/usr/lib/libgd.so -> libgd.so.2.0.0
/jail/www/usr/lib/libgd.so.2 -> libgd.so.2.0.0

/jail/www/usr/lib/libjpeg.so.62.0.0
/jail/www/usr/lib/libjpeg.so.62 -> libjpeg.so.62.0.0

/jail/www/usr/lib/libpng12.so.0.1.2.8
/jail/www/usr/lib/libpng12.so.0 -> libpng12.so.0.1.2.8
/jail/www/usr/lib/libpng.so -> libpng12.so.0.1.2.8
/jail/www/usr/lib/libpng.so.3 -> libpng12.so.0.1.2.8

(all of these were taken from /usr/lib)



I was hoping someone might have an idea as to what I'm doing wrong.

Here's my configure line for php-4.4.1
./configure --with-zlib --with-jpeg --with-png --with-gd \
--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-apache=../apache_1.3.34 \
--enable-safe-mode

Here's my configure line for apache_1.3.34
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache --disable-module=all \
--server-uid=apache --server-gid=apache --enable-module=access \
--enable-module=log_config --enable-module=dir \
--enable-module=mime --enable-module=auth \
--activate-module=src/modules/extra/mod_security \
--activate-module=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a
