Hi Eric. Thanks for the response. I looked at both web sites and basically started all over. I downloaded the pcre packages and installed. Those, of course, complained about dependencies so, after many times downloading some extra dependencies, I finally got back to the point of compiling apache. After I use the ./configure command, I still get the error saying it can't find the pcre-config, even though it is pointed to on the command line. So, I'm still stuck at the same point I was last week. Any other ideas? Thanks. John

Have you looked at the wiki? https://wiki.apache.org/httpd/AIXPlatform My last AIX build on 2.4 used pcre and expat from http://www.perzl.org rather than the IBM toolbox. But there are probably ways to get all different varieties to work. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@httpd.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@httpd.apache.org This communication is intended only for the use of the individual or entity named as the addressee.
