Apache configure using cc - inode sharing problem

Chander-shakher Pal — Thu, 27 Jun 2002 22:38:44 GMT

iam trying to compile Apache 1.3.19 using cc.
However when running the configure script i get the following error :
./configure --prefix=/apps/apachebca --enable-rule=SHARED_CORE --enable-module=so
Configuring for Apache, Version 1.3.19

+ using installation path layout: Apache (config.layout)

Stop.

Aborting!

I checked the inode numbers for .o and .s file, and they are different.

I saw a similar posting sometime back.
Is this problem related to C compiler installation ?

Any ideas/solutions ?

I believe this relates back to your C complier 'cc'. The one that ships with HP-UX is rather brain dead (just K&R), you need to get the HP ANSI C
compiler, or use GCC.

The easiest way to get apache up and running, would be to use the precompiled version found here:

http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Networking/WWW/apache-1.3.26/

However, if you want to compile your own apache, you can download a precompiled version of gcc here:

http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Gnu/gcc-3.1/

Hope that helps.

Thanks Mike !
But i do have an installation of HP's ANSI C compiler on the box. And it appears correctly in the path too.

I can't use the pre-built apache as I require to include some files provided for a specific application (Business Objects)

Another restriction is w.r.t version of gcc, as the vendor suggests - 2.95.3 where as HP says the only valid version for HPUX11.0 is ver3.0+

Any further ideas !

Are you sure your using the right compiler?

# which cc
/usr/bin/cc
# echo $PATH
/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
# PATH=/opt/ansic/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
# export PATH
# which cc
/opt/ansic/bin/cc

Michael, /usr/bin/cc is a symlink to /opt/ansic/bin/cc when the ANSI C bundle is installed.

I'm looking at this error:

cc: error 1411: "cpprt0.c" shares inode with "cpprt0.o". Can't overwrite source file.

which I've never, to my short memory, run across. It would appear that the source and object file names are the same file (hard linked) as if an ln was done rather than an ld at some point. Try deleting the object file and starting over and reconfigure.

For some unknown reason my system that has the ANSI/C compiler does not have that link.....

more work.........
