#18734: php5 install causes: configure: error: iconv support requested, but not found -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Reporter: jsafire@… | Owner: ryandesign@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.7.0 Keywords: php5 iconv 1.7.0 | Port: php5 -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Old description:
When trying to install php5 or apache2, I get this error: "configure: error: iconv support requested, but not found".
MacOSX 10.5.6 on new Macbook.
I am trying to get mysql running, but having trouble, so decided to reinstall AMP using MacPorts.
In my /usr/lib are: libiconv.2.4.0.dylib libiconv.2.dylib libiconv.dylib libiconv.la
What does this mean and how can I fix it?

I am trying to get mysql running, but having trouble, so decided to reinstall AMP using MacPorts. In my /usr/lib are: {{{ libiconv.2.4.0.dylib libiconv.2.dylib libiconv.dylib libiconv.la }}} What does this mean and how can I fix it? -- Comment(by ryandesign@…): What's in your /usr/lib is immaterial. MacPorts won't use it. It will use its own libiconv port. What version of Xcode do you have? What is the "port" command you ran that caused the error? Was it "sudo port install php5"? Or maybe "sudo port install apache2"? And what port did it say failed to build? Was it php5 or apache2 or maybe instead one of its dependencies? Whatever port failed, can you please clean it and then try again, this time with the debug switch, and send us all the output? For example if apache2 was the port that failed, then: {{{ sudo port clean apache2 sudo port -d install apache2 2>&1 | tee ~/Desktop/output.txt }}} Then, assuming that fails again, attach output.txt from your desktop to this ticket. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/18734#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
