Hello,

        I had the same problem until I loaded the zlib-devel package. I then
used the following command line to build php and it worked fine:

# ./configure --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs
--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql-standard-4.0.18-pc-linux-i686 -with-zlib

then make; make install and it was fine.

I am using Suse Linux 9.0, Apache 2 and Mysql 4.

Good Luck!.

Andrew
