I've been following this thread for a few days now, and I just thought that I'd mention that this compile problem appears to be the same on AIX 5.1 ML02 with C for AIX 6.0. I may be able to offer access to this system for one individual to assist in the process of debugging this, since it's been mentioned that access to an AIX boxen is a problem.

Without PERL_INC I got this error:

So, I looked at the -bI:/perl.exp and looked at the Makefile.modperl and saw
that it referenced PERL_INC, which didn't appear to be defined, although it
was referenced, after setting it to PERL_INC =
/usr/local/perl5.8.0/lib/5.8.0/aix/CORE and got this error next:

Noticed -bE:.exp and looked in the makefile for where that was coming from,
which led me to set BASEEXT = mod_perl since it was defined in
Makefile.modperl but was referenced. Which led a bit further but still
without success.

#
#> BASEEXT = mod_perl
#
#what if you replace it with
#
#BASEEXT = modperl

I actually have a mod_perl.exp in /tmp/modperl-2.0 and if I point at that
one or at an empty mod_perl.exp or modperl.exp I get further on to a new
error:

        LD_RUN_PATH="" ld  -bhalt:4 -bM:SRE
-bI:/usr/local/perl5.8.0/lib/5.8.0/aix/CORE/perl.exp -bE:Base64.exp

ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .apr_base64_encode_binary
ld: 0711-345 Use the -bloadmap or -bnoquiet option to obtain more
information.

Those symbols exists in ./xs/apache_global.exp  and the Base64.exp in
WrapXS/APR/Base64 contains just one line:
boot_APR__Base64

So, not being any kind of C programmer at all, I'm sort of stuck.


# #In any case, AIX seems to be a special case, and without having an access to #it it's hard to debug the problem. So if you can debug what happens in the #function write_export_file() in lib/ModPerl/WrapXS.pm (where the exp files are #generated) and either it's a problem of the exp file not being generated or

#just not being found.
#

With my limited knowledge of what's really going on here, it appears to me
that the .exp files are being generated, just not in the places AIX expects
them to be? I tried to verify that write_export_file was writing all the
items it found and I didn't find anything that wasn't being written and as I
said above the symbols that are "missing" are in another file.

I'm happy to try any suggestions that you may have to get through this.

#Apparently, the exp files are needed only for AIX. Though currently
generated
#for all, and I can see only these:
#../xs/apache_global.exp
#../xs/apache_inline.exp
#../xs/apache_ithreads.exp
#../xs/modperl_global.exp
#../xs/modperl_inline.exp
#../xs/modperl_ithreads.exp

I have:
-rw-r--r--   1 root     system     17397 Mar 03 16:02 ./xs/apache_global.exp
-rw-r--r--   1 root     system         3 Mar 03 16:02 ./xs/apache_inline.exp

-rw-r--r--   1 root     system        15 Mar 03 16:28 ./mod_perl.exp

Plus, the empty ones I created:
-rw-r--r--   1 root     system         0 Mar 03 16:09
../src/modules/perl/perl.exp
-rw-r--r--   1 root     system         0 Mar 01 15:09
../src/modules/perl/modperl.exp

#
#what if you create an empty mod_perl.exp in src/modules/perl?
#
#> PERL_INC = /usr/local/perl5.8.0/lib/5.8.0/aix/CORE
#
#Thanks.
