Hi Rainer, You never know who your talking to and where they are when you get into a group. I was out sick yesterday, so I am just catching up.
>Could you provide (sorry, if you did already) precise information about >your platform (I remember AIX, but which version)? Also: which version >of Apache httpd (1.3.X) do you use? We are AIX 5.3 TL6 SP3 on this system. Apache web server 1.3.31 Tomcat is at 5.5.20 Apache was installed from the Linux package CD for Jun 2007. It is a rpm install. I think the binaries are built into the package and installed through the rpm process. I needed to install the devel part for apxs to be installed. This was also rpm install for the devel rpm file below. apache-1.3.31-1ssl.aix5.1.ppc.rpm apache-devel-1.3.31-1ssl.aix5.1.ppc.rpm apache-manual-1.3.31-1ssl.aix5.1.ppc.rpm Tomcat was a tar file which I untared into a work directory and then copied to /opt/freeware >Do you have an idea, if your Apache httpd was compiled with the same >compiler, that you use?

Sure, if you think it would help. By the way thanks for all the help.. Rich
