Hi Gregg, The method you suggested works greatly, I've done it successfully: - perl cvtdsp.pl -2005 - VS 2008 conversion - VS 2101 conversion Cheers, bswen -Original Message- From: Gregg L.

RE: Cannot build httpd on Win 7 + VS2010
Hello Gabriel, I've run into this on xp, vista & 2008. Somehow source folders get put in read only mode. Make them writable again and it will build. On Win7 if that means putting it in Documents, so be it. As far as errors in IDE, you sure they are not warnings? 2 warnings per project is what I see on 2010. I do not like 2010 so I haven't compiled Apache with since I gave it a try after it's release. Gregg Original Message --- Hi, Can you make Apache build on Windonws 7 and Visual Studio 2010? Neither the nmake nor the IDE builds work: NMAKE: nmake -f Makefile.win installd Error: aprutil.mak(1459) : fatal error U1054: cannot create inline file 'tempfile.bat' IDE: building project InstallBin => thousands of errors Are these build scripts/project maintained?
