trying to start Apache 1.3.28 and getting dld.sl missing libexpat.sl

I installed a depot version of Apache 1.3.28 on HPUX 11.11. Everything was successful with swinstall. Now when I try and start using apachectl start I get the dld.sl file libexpat.sl not found? Any suggestions.

Though I never thought it would make any difference with this tool, check the following.

Kernel parameters:

shmmax
shmseg

SHLIB_PATH
variable.

apache uses shared memory resources and if there are not enough, you will have problems.

check whether the file is present in /usr/local/lib.

if present,add the lib path to SHLIB_PATH.

Hi,

I have encountered this before. You can go to the following link and type 'expat' to search. The latest version should be 1.95.6. It's a C library for parsing XML.

For more details, go to
