[mapserver-users] Error running ./configure on a Linux machine

Hello all.

 I have tried to compile MapServer 5.4.1 for the last few hours to no
 avail. I cannot get past the ./configure command for some reason. Any
 input will be greatly appreciated.

 Basically, my problem is that ./configure refuses to recognize some of
 the commands I give it for some reason (for example, --with-agg or
 --with-png). It also refuses to find files on the system when I
 specify paths. For example, /usr/sbin/httpd or /usr/bin/xml2-config. I
 have made sure that the files are there, installed correctly, running
 just fine and are accessible by the user running ./configure.

 Any ideas what might be the problem? The following information may be useful.

 Thank you in advance,

 Michalis
