Hi everyone,

I am a newuser , i wish to stick to open source. i have problem compiling
mapserver 5. 0.3 on fedora 9. i used the following configure statements:

[kapil at localhost mapserver-5.0.3]$ ./configure
--with-ogr=/usr/bin/gdal-config \--with-gdal=/usr/bin/gdal-config
\--with-httpd=/usr/sbin/httpd \--with-wfsclient \--with-wmsclient

I gone through many threads having similar error which are have been posted
in mapserver forum, but i was not satisfied with the solution given in
threads.
