Hi Mark,

I showed the procedure using latest expat-2.0.1 instead of the
bundled expat in the past thread. Do you have the same need to
use the latest expat ?

What kind of options do you specify to the configure script
using gcc, not HP ANSI C compiler ?

Thank you,

Shinji

[Mark P Fleming]

No, I don't have any particular need to use the 2.0.1 version of expat. I am just trying to get past the initial make error; where it can't seem to find apr_generate_random_bytes.

When I execute the configure script I am only using the --prefix option. From the output of configure, it does seem to find gcc. I am attaching the results of the configure script.

[Shinji Teragaito_1]

You have to specify LDFLAGS to the configure script to avoid apr
unsat error as you encounted:

LDFLAGS="-Wl,-E \
-Wl,+b,/opt/apache/lib \
-L`pwd`/srclib/apr/.libs \
-L`pwd`/srclib/apr-util/xml/expat/.libs \
-L`pwd`/srclib/apr-util/.libs"

Good luck !!

[Mark P Fleming]

Thanks for the quick reply. Do I put the LDFLAGS into the configure script or specify it on the command line?

[Shinji Teragaito_1]

I always give LDFLAGS to configure script directly as I mentioned
in the past.

[Mark P Fleming]

I added the LDFLAGS to the configure script, ran it, and then did the make. Unfortunately I got the same error. I am attaching the output from the configure and will attach the make output to my next post.

[Mark P Fleming]

Output from make showing same error with unstatisfied symbols; apr_generate_random_bytes

[Steven Schweda]

I know nothing, but a Google search for
apache apr_generate_random_bytes
found:

http://www.nabble.com/Problem-compiling-apache-httpd-2.2.9-on-HP-UX-td19637631.html

which offers some suggestions.

[Shinji Teragaito_1]

Mark> Output from make showing same error with unstatisfied symbols;

Because you didn't specify the correct directory paths to LDFLAGS
in order to avoid link-time unsat error.

Looking at your output from the configure script, I can see as follows:

> restoring LDFLAGS to "-Wl,-E -Wl,+b,/opt/apache/lib
> -L/opt/apache/srclib/apr/.libs
> -L/opt/apache/srclib/apr-util/xml/expat/.libs
> -L/opt/apache/srclib/apr-util/.libs"

As I mentioned, you have to specify as follows:

LDFLAGS="-Wl,-E \
-Wl,+b,/opt/apache/lib \
-L`pwd`/srclib/apr/.libs \
-L`pwd`/srclib/apr-util/xml/expat/.libs \
-L`pwd`/srclib/apr-util/.libs"

NOTE: Suppose that Apache 2.2.11 is installed in /opt/apache and
its libraries are installed in /opt/apache/lib.

You should not replace -L`pwd` with -L/opt/apache.
