I need to use php to connect to a sybase db on another machine. I realized that I needed to compile php using --with-sybase.
I am doing it but I found these errors below and the compilation fails.
I have not installed sybase on the machine where I am compiling php because I will connect to another machine where sybase is running. How can I solve this problem? there is not too much doc around
what is the difference between these 2 options: --with-sybase and --with-sybase-ct ?
just to clarify, the ./configure --with-sybase shows NO errors, but when doing the "make" is when the process stops:
