compliling probs. lex/flex

[Michael Geist]

Ig I try to compile php4.0.6 I get the following error:

checking lex output file root... ./configure[2343]: lex: not found.
configure: error: cannot find output from lex; giving up

I have installed flex***.depot and all other files which are requiered (read INSTALL).
What can I do?

Regards
Michael

[Alex Glennie]

have you added the full path to the flex binary to your $PATH variable before running the ./configure script ? (it's a guess)

[Michael Geist]

sure .... LOL, in my own .profile. But I started configure as another user ... see my question as never asked ;o)
thx
Michael

[Alex Glennie · Accepted solution]

Michael are you saying this problem is now resolved ?

[Michael Geist]

let me say ... yes... this problem is solved... but after configure I do "make".

Looks like you're using the bundled HP compiler which is NOT ansi compliant. I assume you don't have the HP ANSI C compiler installed on your system. Try installing GCC..you should be able to get it from the porting center. Remember that you also need to install binutils in order to get GCC working.

Hope this helps.

thx. i have installed gcc package. after deleting config.cache and running again configure ... make seems to be ok ;o)
thx a lot

while running "make" the following error occured:
