Notes regarding HP-UX compilation with latest CVS snapshots of httpd-2.0, apr, and apr-util:
config.guess: hppa2.0w-hp-hpux11.00 uname: HP-UX B.11.00 U 9000/800 HP's Ansi C compiler (non-free): HP C/HP-UX Version A.11.01.00 MPM: prefork Let me know if you want more details about the hardware and software setup. The key is HP-UX 11.00 with HP's C compiler. apr_sendfile doesn't have an implementation in APR defined for HP-UX. I do know that HP has different sendfile() semantics than Solaris or FreeBSD. I seem to remember Linus Torvalds mentioning on lkml that HP-UX had "braindamage" in its sendfile implementation: http://lists.insecure.org/linux-kernel/2001/Jan/2978.html I am in no position to judge the merits of HP-UX's sendfile implementation, but I *do* know that HP has done some weird things in the past. So, it may be best to detect it and automatically disable apr_sendfile on this platform (even if it has a native sendfile implementation). I'm not familiar enough (yet) with HP-UX's sendfile or APR to offer a workable solution. There were some compiler warnings, but I didn't really pay attention to those (seemed mostly harmless). But, I can submit the output from make if anybody is interested. Since pthread is new in HP-UX 11.xx, it might not be a terribly bad idea to test out the MPM pthreads model as well (I used prefork) - if I get a chance later today, I might do so. Once I manually disabled APR_SENDFILE in apr.h, it compiled, built, and ran. It served the manuals fine. I don't really plan on stress testing it too much (unless someone wants me to). If desired, I can also dig up some time on an IBM AIX 4.3 box to test. Not sure if anyone has confirmed AIX yet. Hope this helps, Justin Erenkrantz [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Tue, Feb 13, 2001 at 08:12:52AM -0500, Jeff Trawick wrote: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: > > > HP-UX > > FYI...
