autoconf unable to process apr m4 macros which prevents successful build
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: TS-64
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-64
Project: Traffic Server
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Build
Affects Versions: 2.0a
Environment: RHEL4, automake-1.9.2, autoconf-2.59
Reporter: Andrew Hsu
Assignee: Andrew Hsu
Fix For: 2.0a
autoreconf cannot process the configure.ac file with the new apr m4 macros:
configure.ac:514: warning: file `build-aux/apr_common.m4' included several times
configure.ac:515: warning: file `build-aux/apr_network.m4' included several
times
configure.ac:514: warning: file `build-aux/apr_common.m4' included several times
configure.ac:515: warning: file `build-aux/apr_network.m4' included several
times
configure:8673: error: possibly undefined macro: dnl
If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
See the Autoconf documentation.
autoreconf: /usr/bin/autoconf failed with exit status: 1
make: *** [debug] Error 1
The proper location for these macros are in the 'm4' dir, not 'build-aux'
because 'build-aux' is a generated dir during autoconf processing.
Once the files are moved to 'm4', they will automatically be included and the
macros will be available for use in 'configure.ac' because of the
'ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS' line in the toplevel 'Makefile.am'. Therefore, the
'sinclude()' lines can be removed from 'configure.ac'.
I already have a fix for this which I'll commit after this jira is created.
Cheers,
Andrew
