I am still experimenting. I don't think it's a permission problem. I am on a separate partition with all the necessary rights.
I managed though to build it with nmake only with the "click one more time" approach. So, by running nmake (NMAKE /f Makefile.win installd) several times I managed to get over the 'tempfile.bat' errors. Does this ring a bell? In VS, they are errors. Trying to built according to: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/platform/win_compiling.html#workspacebuild -> during the first build, I got "header not found" errors complaining about "apr.h" -> (I tried one more time) starting from the 2nd build onwards, the errors are LINK errors. "cannot find external symbol" With the nmake build above i could finally build/debug the problem mentioned in the other post (slow shutdown waiting for treads) (I see that you already replied to that, and I am curious ;) ) Regards, Gabriel On Tue, Oct 26, 2010 at 10:41 PM, Gregg L.
