ok ... well, we're closer. there's a problem either before or at the
point when the module is loaded as a DSO -- before any JServ code has run.
given that, it seems unlikely that JServ is the source of your problem --
unless the problem is our compiler options. can you compile and use any
other DSOs? can you start the webserver if you compile JServ in
statically?
when you compile or load JServ, do you see any warnings about relocatable
code? you could try adding -fpic or -fPIC to your CFLAGS -- if one or the
other isn't not already there, and it solves the problem, it's something
we should look into adding (dep on system and/or compiler). (pic stands
for position independant code; from the man pages, the main difference
seems to be that -fPIC is more insistent about it.)
thanks --
