I know i have bison installed (downloaded a depot and installed it with SAM)

i checked and /sbin/sh and the file  /tmp/php/build/shtool are both in place

To make the life easy, you should download the following GUN tools before compiling the php. (they are very usefull)

gcc  (it is very easy to use gcc to compile php)
make, flex, bison, autoconf, automake, perl, gzip, binutils, zlib, tar (GUN)
m4 (if you don't have it installed)

You can get them from the following site (FREE):

http://hpux.cict.fr/

just do a search for the name the download the one for your
OS version. (eg HP-UX 10.20/HP-UX 11.x etc)

if some of the about tools are install at /usr/local, make sure that you do: (for sh/ksh/bash)
PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
export PATH
and put you gcc lib in LD_LIBRARY_PATH as well

for csh/tcsh use set and setenv to set it up.

Good luck

BTW, is there any reason you're using 10.20 instead of 11.00 or (even better) 11.11 (aka 11i)? Support for 10.20 is going away in a year, and it's a royal pain to get anything from the net to work on it.

Looking on the "./configure" output...

Seems that not only Makefile is in DOS format, but also
some scripts that are run by "/sbin/sh" and "/tmp/php/build/shtool".

Try to find them :-)

Does it make sence to re-get the sources from a place
that gives it in a binary mode (with UNIX newlines, not the DOS ones) ?

A quick look at the configure output suggests that /sbin/sh might be a symbolic link or even a script that is supposed to call the regular sh (usually /bin/sh) check that it's not a dead symbolic link. In addition to bison you need lex or flex. configure seems to think you have lex, but cant find it later, make sure lex or flex are in your path, so be sure you could consider putting a copy or symbolic link to flex in /usr/bin
