Hi all ...
didnt know where else to send this so subscribed just now.
When compiling Apache 1.3.19 with mod_perl 1.25 and mod_ssl 2.8.1
I get the following:
...
===> src/modules/perl
gcc -fpic -O3 -I/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.00503/alpha-dec_osf/CORE -ansi
-I/usr/local/include -DLANGUAGE_C -DMOD_PERL_VERSION=\"1.25\"
-DMOD_PERL_STRING_VERSION=\"mod_perl/1.25\" -I../../os/unix -I../../include
-DOSF1 -DMOD_SSL=208101 -DMOD_PERL -DUSE_HSREGEX -DEAPI -DUSE_EXPAT
-I../../lib/expat-lite `../../apaci` -c mod_perl.c && mv mod_perl.o mod_perl.lo
mod_perl.c:517: unterminated string or character constant
make[4]: *** [mod_perl.lo] Error 1
make[3]: *** [all] Error 1

make[1]: *** [build-std] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/apache/build2/apache_1.3.19'
make: *** [build] Error 2
Particulars:
perl 5.00503
gcc 2.8.1
Tru64 4.0F, no patches
A quick search on the geocrawler archive didnt turn up anything so
I decided to letter'rip. I know my gcc install is kinda funky but
it has installed mod_perl 3 times before w/out problems.
Anyway, stupid little patch that made it work for me is below.
It just brackets a comment in the #ifdef with /* ... */
So ... just in case anyone else searches the archives for this ...
