I need the imageantialias() to work on the server I built. I have complied PHP before but for some reason I can't do it any more. I ran these steps to try:

  1. apt-get source php5
  2. apt-get build-dep php5
  3. cd php5-*
  4. nano debian/rules
  5. find this line --with-gd=shared,/usr --enable-gd-native-ttf \ and remove ,/usr
  6. save and exit
  7. nano debian/setup_mysql.sh
  8. search for Start the daemon
  9. add –user=root after the mysqld
  10. save and exit
  11. dpkg-buildpackage –rfakeroot -us –uc -d

then it runs for a long time and then it ends here:

make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/php5-5.3.10/cgi-build'
    sed -i -e 's/-d output_buffering=1 -d open_basedir="" -d safe_mode=0/-d output_buffering=1 -d open_basedir="" -d safe_mode=0 -d memory_limit="-1"/' \

    touch build-pear-stamp
    mkdir -p temp_session_store
    # start our own mysql server for the tests
    /bin/sh debian/setup-mysql.sh 2963 /usr/src/php5-5.3.10/mysql_db
make: *** [test-results.txt] Error 1
    dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build gave error exit status 2

I tried it without modifying the setup-mysql.sh as well but the same thing happens. I'm not really sure why this isn't working. I know the last time I did this I had a lot of trouble. Also I've tried this on two separate 12.04 servers with the same problem.

  • there are some of the things I've looked up http://mapopa.blogspot.com/2012/06/php-gd-bundled-compilation-instructions.html – Stephen Jesse Jun 02 '13 at 01:04
  • Why are you going to all this trouble? You could just install Red Hat/CentOS and have it working in as long as it takes to download the `php-gd` package. – Michael Hampton Jun 02 '13 at 03:08
  • Can you explain why you remove `,/usr` from the `--with-gd=shared` option? what is the purpose? – dawud Jun 02 '13 at 08:06
  • I use ubuntu for the most part because it just works for me. I have to remove the /usr part I think because it points the the package that ubuntu supplies and that doesn't include the imageantialias() function, I need to use the one that is bundled with php – Stephen Jesse Jun 02 '13 at 11:22

Just thought I'd put this out there for anyone else having this same issue. I had to fix this same problem on a Ubuntu server and this article (credit goes to the person that wrote it) actually covers the solution.

In short:

The Error:

make: *** [test-results.txt] Error 1
dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build gave error exit status 2

The solution (as covered in the above article):

This is caused because the mysql server refuses to run under root

$ sudo vim debian/setup-mysql.sh

In this file comment the line starting the server, and copy the command, adding the “–user=root” parameter:

# Start the daemon
#$mysqld > $datadir/run.log 2>&1 &
#add root user
$mysqld --user=root > $datadir/run.log 2>&1 &

Then finally:

$ sudo dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
