However, I have one problem which affects its operation, but I'm sure there's a general fix for it.  RoadSend installed its main executables in /usr/local/bin and a few libraries in /usr/local/lib.  However when I run the Roadsend compiler it complains about not finding the libraries which are located in the /usr/local/lib directory. To get it to run I have to first execute: "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib", after which the compiler works.  Unfortunately this only applies to the open terminal window.  When I open a new terminal I have to do it again. The "LD_LIBRARY_PATH" variable (and "ld" for that sake) is not specific to Roadsend? In fact "/usr/local/lib" is also a common directory for libraries. It is also specified in /etc/ld.so.conf.d/libc.conf file.  Admittedly, I don't know too much about how ld (and shared libraries) work. Could there be a general fix for this? Charl -----Original Message----- <PRE> Hi Guys I'm considering using a PHP compiler to compile my web interface. The main reason is to speed up the system as it runs on fairly slow hardware (200 MHz ARM and 500 MHz Intel xscale). My first run will however be on an Ubuntu server to see how well it works. I couldn't find one in the Ubuntu repositories, but I did find the Roadsend compiler: <A HREF="http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Programming/Compilers/Roadsend-Compiler-for-PHP-10342.shtml">http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Programming/Compilers/Roadsend-Compiler-for-PHP-10342.shtml</A> Is there an Ubuntu supported PHP compiler? Is there any alternatives anybody has some experience with? Charl </PRE> </BODY> </HTML>
