How to fetch ./configure parameters used at last time?
I am upgrading LAMP stack on customer's server and need to ./configure mysql and apache with exact last settings they were compiled with last time. Where do I get these? PHP configure string can be got by php -i. What about others?
Solution 1:
Was the decompressed source directory kept around? If so, the configure
flags would typically be in config.status
or config.log
.
This differs slightly depending on the software and whether or not autoconf was used.
Solution 2:
config.status has a --config
flag to print out the last configuration. I found it by running ./config.status --help
--config print configuration, then exit
So just run ./config.status --config
, and it will print out all the configure parameters.
