[mapserver-users] Nightly build doesn't compile?

[Twan Kogels]

Goodmorning,

Finally i have installed apache/php3/postgresql/mapserver and mapscript on 
my Suse (v 7.3) linux system. It all works correctly, the examples supplied 
with mapserver and mapscript run without any problems.

Tomorrow i installed postgis, no problems with it, compiled nicely. But 
then i came to the conclusion that i needed a newer version of mapserver, 
so i downloaded the nightly build (which has postgis support build in).

But there is a problem with the nightly build, i can't compile it. First i 
configure mapserver with the following command:

./configure --with-gd --with-postgis=/usr/local/pgsql/bin/ 
--with-php=../php-3.0.18 --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs

Configure runs correctly and generates a makefile. But when i try the command:

make

GCC gives me a error:

linux:/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/mapserver # make
gcc -c -O2  -Wall -DIGNORE_MISSING_DATA  -DUSE_EPPL    -DUSE_TIFF 
-DUSE_JPEG -DUSE_GD_PNG -DUSE_GD_JPEG
-DUSE_GD_WBMP 
-DUSE_GD_FT     -DUSE_POSTGIS  -I/usr/include 
-I/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/mapserver/../php-3.0.18/regex    -I   mapbits.c 
-o mapbits.o
gcc: No input files
make: *** [mapbits.o] Error 1

Does anybody know what i'm doing wrong? For the experts below is the 
complete output of the configure and make commands:
