phpize reports "Cannot find config.m4"

macos, osx-mountain-lion, php

Solution

The `phpize` command is meant to be run at the top level of an extension source dir (this source dir should contain a file name config.m4).

See http://php.net/manual/en/install.pecl.phpize.php for more information.

Problem

I am trying to run the 'phpize' command on MacOSx Mountain Lion, but this is what I get: ``` Cannot find config.m4. Make sure that you run '/opt/local/bin/phpize' in the top level source directory of the module ``` How do I resolve this error ?
