Hi List, I've spent the last several hours trying to figure out the following error message that I receive with Apache 1.3.29 and mod_perl 1.29:
/usr/local/apache/bin/httpd: relocation error: /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd: undefined symbol: PL_dowarn bin/apachectl start: httpd could not be started This output occurs whenever I try to start the httpd that has been compiled. There are no compilation errors. There is nothing further in the error.log. I am compiling under Debian Sarge with gcc 3.3.3, Perl 5.8.3 and make 3.80. I have rebuilt Perl and tried to reinstall as many of the modules as I could. The system is a dual cpu and I did not do anything special when recompiling Perl. I've completely read the short and long installation notes and searched the archives but could not a solution to my problem. I did try locating the PL_nowarn symbol via the following command: nm ../apache_1.3.29/src/httpd | grep PL_nowarn This returned nothing which seems suspicious. Trying to run the 'make test' operation which uses a simplified httpd.conf fails with the message above. Simply trying '../apache_1.3.29/src/httpd -v' also fails with the same message. I can successfully build Apache without mod_perl. Most of my test Perl scripts are working fine from the command line. perl -V output: Summary of my perl5 (revision 5.0 version 8 subversion 3) configuration: Platform: osname=linux, osvers=2.4.25, archname=i686-linux uname='linux webserv 2.4.25 #1 smp tue apr 6 12:23:14 edt 2004 i686 gnulinux ' config_args='-Dotherlibdirs=/usr/share/perl5/ -des' hint=recommended, useposix=true, d_sigaction=define usethreads=undef use5005threads=undef useithreads=undef usemultiplicity=undef useperlio=define d_sfio=undef uselargefiles=define usesocks=undef use64bitint=undef use64bitall=undef uselongdouble=undef usemymalloc=n, bincompat5005=undef Compiler: cc='cc', ccflags ='-fno-strict-aliasing -I/usr/local/include -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64', optimize='-O3', cppflags='-fno-strict-aliasing -I/usr/local/include' ccversion='', gccversion='3.3.3 (Debian)', gccosandvers='' intsize=4, longsize=4, ptrsize=4, doublesize=8, byteorder=1234 d_longlong=define, longlongsize=8, d_longdbl=define, longdblsize=12 ivtype='long', ivsize=4, nvtype='double', nvsize=8, Off_t='off_t', lseeksize=8 alignbytes=4, prototype=define Linker and Libraries: ld='cc', ldflags =' -L/usr/local/lib' libpth=/usr/local/lib /lib /usr/lib libs=-lnsl -lgdbm -ldl -lm -lcrypt -lutil -lc perllibs=-lnsl -ldl -lm -lcrypt -lutil -lc libc=/lib/libc-2.3.2.so, so=so, useshrplib=false, libperl=libperl.a gnulibc_version='2.3.2' Dynamic Linking: dlsrc=dl_dlopen.xs, dlext=so, d_dlsymun=undef, ccdlflags='-rdynamic' cccdlflags='-fpic', lddlflags='-shared -L/usr/local/lib' Characteristics of this binary (from libperl): Compile-time options: USE_LARGE_FILES Built under linux Compiled at Apr 7 2004 01:54:35 @INC: /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.3/i686-linux /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.3 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.3/i686-linux /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.3 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/share/perl5/ .
