Problems installing PHP Mapscript - HELP!

[Dan Taylor]

Editted /etc/php.ini and turned on error reporting.  This gave me the error...

Warning: dl(): Unable to load dynamic library
'/usr/lib/php4/php_mapscript.so' - libgdal.so.1: cannot open shared
object file: No such file or directory in
/var/www/html/php-mapserver-test.php on line 11

...which at least let me know what was happening.  Running the command...

ln -s /usr/local/lib/libgdal.so.1.7.0 /usr/lib/libgdal.so.1

...solved the problem.

Phew!
