Dear,

A customer needs a PHP PostScript (PS) extension for generating some stuff.

I found a PECL extension that should work;
http://pecl.php.net/package/ps

But i can't get this one to work, and receive the following error;

Code: 
[root@server5 ~]# pecl install ps

configure: error: wrong pslib lib version or lib not found
ERROR: `/root/tmp.pear/temp/ps/configure --with-ps=/usr/lib' failed

The error indicates that the pslib is not installed, but i installed this one using YUM (EPEL repository) and the libs are located in /usr/lib and /usr/lib64 but the PECL installer won't do this.

Some server specs;
CentOS 5 x64
PHP 5.3.21 CLI
pslib-0.4.5-2.el5.x86_64 and pslib-0.4.5-2.el5.i386 installed
pslib-devel-0.4.5-2.el5.x86_64 and pslib-devel-0.4.5-2.el5.i386 installed

What can I do to install the PECL extension?

Thanks in advance!

Because you didnt install the right file. You need to install pslib-devel

Hi ChatWizrd,

I was forgotten to mention those packages also, the devel packages are also installed (i change my topic).

What do you get with this command:

Code: 
ls -lah /usr/lib/libps.so*

I just tried to install it and it went fine.

This is the output;
Code:

Maybe you can do:

Code: 
cd /root/tmp.pear/temp/ps
phpize --clean

Or maybe you could even remove the whole tmp folder of ps so you can get a new clean configure. Normally I would try make clean to fix this, but not sure how to with pecl. I am not sure what its trying to look for and not finding. You could see if /root/tmp.pear/temp/ps has a config.log that you can look at to see what its trying to find.

Tried that, but didn't work either, i didn't found any log files inside the tmp folders.

I tried it also on another CentOS 5 x64 box, same problems there...

Did you tried this also on a CentOS 5 x64 Box? I have also some CentOS 6 boxes, i will try it there.
 
I tried a CentOS 6 box, guess what! There it's working immediately.

Unfortunately my client needs this extension on a CentOS 5 box so I am not finished yet :(
 
I tried it on a centos 5.x i386 box. I will try it on my 5.x 64bit one.

Edit: It worked fine lol.

Libraries have been installed in:
   /tmp/pear/install/pear-build-rootZy5R4C/ps-1.3.6/modules

If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries
in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and
specify the full pathname of the library, or use the `-LLIBDIR'
flag during linking and do at least one of the following:
   - add LIBDIR to the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH' environment variable
     during execution
   - add LIBDIR to the `LD_RUN_PATH' environment variable
     during linking
   - use the `-Wl,--rpath -Wl,LIBDIR' linker flag
   - have your system administrator add LIBDIR to `/etc/ld.so.conf'

See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for
more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages.
