Compile php with latest openssl and curl

Question

I am trying to compile php 5.4.36 with latest curl and openssl (1.0.1l), i have compiled openssl into a separated folder

My system is CentOS.

When i try to compile php with

./configure  ...etc... --with-curl=/usr/local/curlfolder --with-openssl=/usr/local/opensslfolder

I get this error:

checking whether to enable FTP support... yes
checking OpenSSL dir for FTP... /usr/local/opensslfolder
checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config
configure: error: Cannot find OpenSSL's libraries

Both curl and openssl compiled without any issues

Try to the SRPMS as a starting point, manually installing software is generally not encouraged. Might be easier to just upgrade to the newest CentOS version. — fuero, Jan 19 '15 at 00:01

these "dirs" are merely prefixes... while cURL basically comes with it's own SSL.

PHP needs to be configured like that, to build for CentOS - with openSSL and cURL:

./configure --build=x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu --with-openssl --with-openssl-dir=/usr/local/bin --with-curl=/usr/local

(assuming the additional libraries were built with):

./configure --prefix=/usr/local

Thank you. The "configure --help" output was not clear on this. – Sarah C. Corriher Jan 17 '16 at 04:22
@Sarah that is because it's two independent configure scripts, one for the PHP interpreter and one for the libraries which cURL depends on. – Martin Zeitler Jan 18 '16 at 06:35

You can use

--with-openssl or --with-openssl-dir

If you build openssl from source in folder like /opt/openssl then You can try with

--with-openssl-dir=/opt/openssl

This was worked for me.
