Hi guys...

Ok, I need to install php4.2.3 on a raq4 so that a client can make use of a particular function.

When running ./configure comand I am getting the following

configure: error: Unable to find libgd.(a|so) anywhere under /usr/local /usr

I have looked everywhere, and have seen this question asked many times, but cannot find where it has ever been answered...

Can someone please help urgently....I need to get this working.

Thanks.

Ok, think I fixed it.

I had been reading so many threads, and every single one mentioned putting --with-gd-dir=/usr/lib instead of just --with-gd but every single one came back and said it didn't work, so I didn't try it.

Anyway, I tried it and it worked...lol....

Will repost if anymore problems...but seems to be going fine now.
