Apache 2.0.58 on hp-ux

[Maxim Rozin]

Hello people,

I'm trying to build Apache 2.0.58 on hp-ux and have a problem.

labm1hp2 ~#uname -a
HP-UX labm1hp2 B.11.23 U ia64 0817728773 unlimited-user license

configure works fine.
make ends with the following error:
...

Making all in metadata
Making all in http
Making all in generators
Making all in mappers
Making all in support

Any idea what's the problem?

Shalom Max,

It would appear the contents of the file:

/tmp/httpd-2.0.58/srclib/apr/.libs/libapr-0.so

Are not wht the compiler needs and epxects. This normally happens when a download fails or the untar process didn't finish due to space concerns and such.

Maybe /tmp was full when you expanded the tarball.

I'm wondering why you need to compile it. http://software.hp.com search for hpws when the site is working again.

If this version of apache is not available now, I'm sure it soon will be.

Thanks/Toda guys for your reply.

I copied the downloaded source tar.gz file to another filesystem, extracted it, configure, make, and it worked fine.

May be it was a space on /tmp problem or a corrupted file.

Anyway, now it works.
Have a nice day,
Max.
