What is my hppa version?

[Jerry Karn_1]

I'm putting Apache on an older hp500 (hpux11) that we just acquired.

To get Apache, I must download gcc. But gcc only lists builds for hppa2.0w hpux11 or hppa64 hpux11.

How do I know what hppa version I have?

Note, It's an hp5000, not an hp500.

hi,

i believe there is a script config.guess in your apache source tree. run that and that should tell you whether this is hppa2.0w or hppa64.

I am attaching the script here just in case - it is common to most gnu tools.

i just ran it on my hp 9000 b class workstation and it gave this output -

hppa2.0w-hp-hpux11.00

FWIW.
- ramd.

Many thanks; trying the script now.

Btw, have you seen problems with the ./configure script with Apache?

I'm getting helpers/dummy.c compile errors, and assuming that I need the new compiler.

Hi,

I know i faced a lot of problems with the configure script.

and i solved most of them.

so, go ahead and shoot - if not me, somebody else will answer and solve your problem.

Hi,

what are these errors you get while compiling the dummy.c file?

Both are (virtually) the same. hppa2.0w and hppa64 are both 64bit builds of gcc.

2.0 (without the 'w') id a 32bit build for hppa-2.0 architecture (PA8000 or up)

The version differs on how gcc was build (64bit gcc built with HP C-ANSI-C is most likely to generate hppa2.0w, and built with gcc/64 most likely generates hppa64).

Correct me if I'm wrong

See (the 'ux' script) on https://www.beepz.com/personal/merijn/#FAQ or http://www.cmve.net/~merijn/#FAQ to find out what you have exactly.

Enjoy, have FUN! H.Merijn
