Well, first let me say that I'm kind of surprised I'm the only one
trying to help you guys out. It seems not many folk are into PHP/PDF?
Any how,
Redhat's *.0 releases are known to be problematic. They are usually
pretty much bleading edge, meaning they're buggy.
The last time I compiled PHP with PDF support, was a few weeks ago. It
was on RedHat 6.2, PHP 4.0.2, and PDFLIB, as a CGI or a stand alone
executable. The config was pretty much ./configure
--with-pgsql=/usr/local/pgsql --with-pdf=/usr/local/bin (I really
think that was it, note I did NOT point right to the libpdf.so). I
also added /usr/local/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf and did a ldconfig.
That's really all I did. RH 6.2, source tarballs of Apache 1.3.12, PHP
4.0.2, pdflib 3.03, postgresql 7.0.2.
If everything configs/builds correctly, I would blame RH 7.0
While I would like to install RH 7.0 and figure out what's up, I just
don't have the time. I would suggest, A) you try to install PHP/PDF as
a CGI under your current install. This allows the simplest install.
If that doesn't work, try RH 6.2 or some other distro?
Good Luck,
Chris
