Fatal error: Call to undefined function msg_get_queue()

Question

I am trying to run a script on my local machine, I am on MAC OSX leopard. I have PHP 5.2.x installed and Apache2. I am trying to test this script but I keep getting this error. I googled around a little and saw something where it said it might only be available on linux/unix machines but I find that hard to believe.

Answer 1

Try enabling the --enable-sysvmsg. The config.m4 file only checks for the header sys/msg.h, so it should work in Mac OSX.

Answer 2

Is support for those methods built into your PHP install? It looks as though you need to explicitly compile PHP with Semaphore, Shared Memory and IPC support.
