[Mapserver-users] Trouble loading php_mapscript.so

Hi,

When I tried to load up php_mapscript.so as PHP extension, I got this error 
message :

Warning: dl() [function.dl]: Unable to load dynamic library 
'/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20020429/php_mapscript.so' - 
/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20020429/php_mapscript.so: 
Undefined symbol "FT_New_Face" in /usr/home/ljfong/public_html/info.phtml on 
line 6

I'm using mapserver 3.6.6 with phpmapscript in it. However, if I compile 
mapserver+phpmapscript without --with-freetype option to configure script, I 
don't get the above error message rather I get error message from mapserver 
saying libgd wasn't compiled with truetype font support. End result, none of 
my application works.

The libgd I'm using right now is 1.8.4. Tried 2.0.15 before, but mapserver 
refused to load even png altogether.

I think I'm confused about a lot of things here, with mapserver 3.6.6 :
- What version of libgd is the most compatible ?
- What version of libfreetype is the most compatible ?

Here's the option I passed in when compiling mapserv :

./configure --with-gd=static,/usr/local --without-tiff 
--with-jpeg=/usr/local --with-png=/usr/local --with-proj=/usr/local 
--with-gdal --with-wms --with-php=../php-4.3.0 --with-wmsclient 
--enable-runpath --with-postgis --with-freetype

on FreeBSD 4.8 system.

Any suggestion/idea would be greatly appreciated.
