I've installed Apache 1.3.36 on my Redhat EL 3 machine. Now I'm trying
to install PHP 5.1.4. I can not get the ./configure command to work. I
keep getting this error:

configure: error: Invalid Apache directory - unable to find httpd.h
under /usr/local/apache/include

So then I run this command:

find / -name httpd.h

which should find every file on my machine with the name "httpd.h".
These are the results I get:

/usr/local/apache/include/httpd.h
/home/shelley/apache_1.3.36/src/include/httpd.h

So I've rerun the ./configure command, using this first:

--with-apache=/usr/local/apche/include

and since that didn't work:

--with-apache=/home/shelley/apache_1.3.36/src/include/httpd.h

but I get the "Invalid directory" error with both addresses.

What am I missing?
