ERROR: The PHP binary coming with ISPConfig does not work properly on your system!
 

Hello All,

I am a newbie in regards to ISPConfig, I am trying to install ISPConfig on my suse 9.3 box but when I am trying to run the installation it comes up with the following error: ERROR: The PHP binary coming with ISPConfig does not work properly on your system! The installation routine stops here!

Things is starting to go sour from this point:
checking for MySQL UNIX socket location... no
configure: error: Cannot find MySQL header files under /usr.
Note that the MySQL client library is not bundled anymore.

Any suggestions to what I need to do to finish off the install?

The mysql header files are missing on your server. Install the mysql devel packages of your linux distribution. Remove the failed mysql installation as described in the installation manual and unpack and run the installer again.

Wow That was a quick reply cheers will try. :)

zlib update
 

Myself I also had to upgrade zlib

cd /tmp
wget http://www.zlib.net/zlib-1.2.3.tar.gz
tar zxvf zlib-1.2.3.tar.gz
cd zlib-1.2.3
nano README
make test
make install
cd /whereever you put ISPconfig.tar
tar xvfz ISPConfig-2.1.2.tar.gz
cd install .... etc
this worked for me on centos

yup looks like the same here...
 

I had to update zlib as well for debian.

Once I got that going it seems to have falled in place install's still going I'll post any further issues I have thanx lol...

Edit: Actually when it gets done it's still hanging on the php that came with the ISPConfig install is not compatible with your system. Will post the error here once I get it again. Running through the setup at 10:37am Mountain Time...

Note: Small keyboard and program that cancel's install upon typo's sucks...

I have a similar problem, but my output is different.

I am running Debian 3.1 (Sarge) and installed the following before I started ./setup:
zlib1g-dev
libmysqlclient15-dev

Is the last package not the one I need? I couldn't find mysql-dev with:
#apt-cache search mysql lib|grep mysql
or
#apt-cache search mysql deb|grep mysql

All I found was:

libmysql-java - Java database (JDBC) driver for MySQL

Is it maybe something to do with
cc1: out of memory allocating 36175296 bytes after a total of 2732032 bytes
?

Is there a memory problem? But the server should have enough memory????

Please help, I've been trying to install ISPConfig for a while now. Cheers.

The problem might be with my kernel, but unfortunately I cannot recompile the kernel, because it's a vserver.

Output of
Is there another solution to this maybe?

Your problem is that you do not have enough RAM and / or SWAP memory to compile PHP:

I dont know if it is possible in your virtual machine to create a swap device?

^^that might be of interest, I'm trying it now as I'm running into the same problem :/
