what do they mean by --with-pgsql=share
what does share signify?

important is the apache configuration file, it must know that it must handle .php as php files.
It would be helpful if you name the php version and the apache version, and your linux installation, since most linux can do it automatically.

Probably xammp can resolve your problems.

it compiles fine but when i give the make command i get error 1
