Building Apache with EAPI, DSO enabled, mod_ssl and mm is a very simple task. I do not know why it took so long to figure out. You simply following the instructions in the mod_ssl install documentation (or other helpful documents you can find these all over the web), and your up and running with Apache - EAPI, DSO, mod_ssl, etc. running.
WRONG! Not on Solaris 8. It seems that if you build Apache on Solaris 2.6 with gcc 2.95 all is well. Simply following the instructions in the mod_ssl documentation and your done. But it's another story if you are using Solaris 8 (I am not sure about 7 or 9 - I do have time to try it on these). After many hours of frustration and numerous emails I finally decided to try every combination one-by-one to identify which one was the culprit. Initial environment: Solaris 8 Gcc 3.0.3 Apache 1.3.26 Mod_ssl-2.8.10-1.3.26 mm-1.1.3 openssl-0.9.6d The only way this combination works is with -enable-rule=SHARED_CORE. This option "forces" Apache to export the share symbols so they are available at run time. This takes a 5% performance hit and since the previous build did not have it I assumed I was doing something wrong. So I tried every possible build configuration over and over - No change (I had to use the SHARE_CORE rule). I even tried this on Apache 2.0.39 and 1.3.20 (the previous build version here of Apache). No matter what I did I could not get it to build the same way as the previous version. More work to do... 2nd shot: Solaris 8 Gcc 2.95.3 Apache 1.3.26 Mod_ssl-2.8.10-1.3.26 mm-1.1.3 openssl-0.9.6d EVENTS AND SOLUTION: Same as above. More work to do... Last shot: Solaris 8 Gcc 3.1 Apache 1.3.26 Mod_ssl-2.8.10-1.3.26 mm-1.1.3 openssl-0.9.6d Worked just like all the documentation said it should have and everyone I contacted told me to do (which I had spend over a week reading and trying all these suggestions). As it turns out, either the build from sunfreeware.com for gcc 2.95 & 3.0.3 have an issue with the loader module, the building of shared libraries, or gcc has an issue. So, if any of you have to do this make sure you have gcc 3.1 or SUN's compiler (I believe SUN's works but did not try it - I guess I'm just stubborn).

I did read the referred document concerning the build phase. I am intrigued by the LD_LIBRARY_PATH suggestion. What would you recommend I set it to? -----Original Message----- From: Boyle Owen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, July 15, 2002 12:51 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: I am having a heck of a time - Please help. Could be to do with your version of openssl lib (check it is reasonably up to date) or with your LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable..
