Mod_Perl on AIX
Can someone point me to the docs for compiling latest mod_perl 1.26 for apache 1.3.20 on AIX 4.3.3 using gcc. Or if docs don't exist, or if I missed something, Just slap me. The docs I've found result in a broken build enviromnent. I suspect that the problem is related to using gcc+ and not the distributed AIX cc. I just wanted to ask before I tried to modify the distributed Makefile.PL. Expesially centz I'za perl newbi. :o -- Jim Cox (mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]) (817) 315-8134 (888) 834-7656 Toll Free (817) 315-8253 FAX (817) 233-8567 Mobile
RE: Mod_Perl on AIX
It greatly depends upon how you built perl. If you're using the OS-provided perl installation, you'll have to use IBM C for AIX to compile apache/mod_perl. Also, other problems/pitfalls exist if you wish to use mod_perl as a DSO. These problems can be overcome, but you'll need specific versions to do so...

Re: Mod_Perl on AIX
Therein lies the problem. I currently do not have the IBM supplied cc on the system. If the answer is to use only the IBM cc I'm not sure there will be an answer. Everything else compiles fine, Apache, as well as the other modules. Thanks. Christian Gilmore wrote: It greatly depends upon how you built perl.

RE: Mod_Perl on AIX
You'll need to compile and install your own perl, then, using gcc.

The problem is perl itself here - it is probably compiled using xlc. Just run perl -V and look at the output. If you want to build Apache and modperl using gcc than you _must_ also build perl using gcc. This means you can not use the perl which is part of AIX, as this is built using xlc. -- Jens-Uwe Mager HELIOS Software GmbH Steinriede 3 30827 Garbsen Germany Phone: +49 5131 709320 FAX:+49 5131 709325 Internet: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

anyone had luck compiling apache-1.3.14 w/ mod_perl-1.24_01on aix 4.3.3?
the Makefile.PL doesn't even work... can't find any references to specific problems, figured i'd check before getting into the gory details... -- Steven Lembark 2930 W. Palmer St. Chicago, IL 60647 [EMAIL PROTECTED] 800-762-1582
Problem building mod_perl on AIX with apxs DSO style
Hello, I am trying to build mod_perl on AIX with the apxs DSO style but get an error on link time. My config is: AIX-4.1.5 Perl-5.6.0 with AIX patch distributed by Jens-Uwe Mager on this list a few months ago. Apache-1.3.12 mod_perl-1.24 I configured mod_perl with the command: perl Makefile.PL \ USE_APXS=1 \ EVERYTHING=1 \ WITH_APXS=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs And I got the following error message after issuing a make: ld: 0711-345 Use the -bloadmap or -bnoquiet option to obtain more information. ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: ap_configtestonly make[1]: *** [libperl.so] Error 8 make[1]: Leaving directory `/u/mijmm/apache/mod_perl-1.24/apaci' make: *** [apxs_libperl] Error 2 _ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
