Cannot find autoconf. Please check your autoconf installation and the
$PHP_AUTOCONF environment variable. Then, rerun this script.
Then it's because you don't have autoconf installed.
To fix this error, do the following:
yum install autoconfor you can install from source (if you want to use the latest version)
cd /usr/local/src/
/* find latest version of m4 here: http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/m4/ */
wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/m4/m4-latest.tar.gz
tar xvfz m4-latest.tar.gz
cd m4-latest
./configure
make
make install
/* find latest version of autoconf here: http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/autoconf/ */
wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/autoconf/autoconf-LATESTVERSION.tar.gz
