[Swftools-common] precompiled jpeg2swf needed (pretty urgently)

[Garry Hill]

hi, i'm in a bit of a mess and wondering if anyone can help.

we've been trying to get jpeg - swf conversion activated on our clients server 
for a while but the isp has finally decided that they're not going to install 
the ming php module we asked for. 

going into the server through ssh i find the situation gets worse when i find 
out i don't have permission to compile from source (fair enough on a shared 
server) so i can't even produce a dynamically loaded version of ming.so that 
works. i extracteed an rpm based binary of ming.so but got a "Unable to 
initialize module Module compiled with ..." error - the only solution being to 
recompile my lovely binary. so i'm back against the wall again.

i was wondering if anyone had used swftools through php (an exec() call) - 
particularly jpeg2swf - and if it works. using this package i figure that at 
least i won't have the module syncing problems that i'm having with the ming 
module.

and _if_ it works if someone with access to a linux box* has a working binary 
lying around - preferably statically linked.

supposedly the client's coming in for training sessions on the 20th... gulp.

yours sweatily,

Garry
