Apache 2.2.3 does not compile

[Thomas VERPILLOT_1]

Hello

I'm trying to compile Apache 2.2.3 on our machines but I get a lot of errors and the compilation fail:

We have all the required compilers installed:

B3394BA B.11.11.02 HP-UX Developer's Toolkit for 11.11
B3901BA B.11.11.12 HP C/ANSI C Developer's Bundle for HP-UX (S800)
B3909DB B.11.11.90 HP-UX 11.11 Fortran 90 Compiler and associated products (S800)
B3913DB C.03.65 HP aC++ Compiler (S800)

This compilation worked at least one time on one machine, then I don't understand why it fail now.

Any Idea ?

thx

Did you build and install all the build-time dependencies?

When you moved the source code, did you copy the tarball and run ./configure again? If not the build had not been configured for the new target environment.

Apache is typically a straighforward build.

[Thomas VERPILLOT_1]

To be sure that my archive was not "corrupted", I downloaded it again, then I configured it:
./configure --prefix=/opt/apache

Everything was OK

After this, I just tried to compile:

make

Could it be an updated of the compiler / linker ? We did one patches update the last week:

Hello,

Try to use GCC for HP-UX 11i:

Can you show us what's on those lines?
They don't have the inline keyword do they?

[Thomas VERPILLOT_1]

Hello,

Attached, a file that contain all the errors and the .h concatenated.

For the patches, here is what we have currently installed:

PHSS_33944 1.0 HP aC++ -AA runtime libraries (aCC A.03.71)
PHSS_28303 1.0 LIBCL patch
PHSS_35381 1.0 ld(1) and linker tools cumulative patch

No Patches for ANSI C compiler, HP aC++ Compiler and Fortran90, only the bundle above.

No trace of +O4/PBO (patches or bundles)

[Dennis Handly]

>a file that contain all the errors and the .h concatenated.

This just indicates you will need to do some header spelunking to find out where those types are defined. And possibly what -Ds are needed to include them.

If you have a system where it works, you can compile with -E and redirect stdout to capture a .i file. (If you had a real compiler, you could just use "-E -.i". ;-) And do it with the bad one to compare where those types are found.

You might also want to compile with -Wp,-hincl.out to get a hierarchical include tree, and then compare. (If you have more recent compilers, you can just use -H.)

If you need to do -D/#if spelunking, there are other options.

[Thomas VERPILLOT_1]

Hello,

We installed the compilers on a wks and I'm now able to compile and install Apache.
It seems it is a patch issue. I will compare the logs to identify what is missing on our compilers machines.

Thank you for your help

PHSS_33944 is superseded by PHSS_33945
PHSS_28303 is superseded by PHSS_34880
PHSS_35381 is superseded by PHSS_35383

These 3 superseded OS Patches does not require Server Reboot:
PHSS_33945 HP aC++ -AA runtime libraries (aCC A.03.76)
PHSS_34880 LIBCL patch
PHSS_35383 ld(1) and linker tools cumulative patch

Should update to above Latest OS Patches if possible

Thanks
