Hi,
I am installing a web-based CVS on Win32, and am trying the route of
installing Cygwin, and then using the Unix sources. I have done this before
and got it to work with little problem. But, this time I found that
httpd dies on
startup with no log messages. Debugging through the source (in main.c) I
found that ap_run_pre_config died without comment. Chasing this issue I
found bug 45076 on the Apache bugzilla, saying I needed to call
apr_hooks_sort_all, and included a patch file. So far so good.
But, the patch file Failed (I am using apache 2.2.10) and my various attempts
to adjust the code along those lines have not produced a solution to
the problem.
What is the status of this issue now?
Hi,
I discovered bug 45076 and produced patches for it but nobody really
paid attention to it. So I didn't add new patches for 2.2.10.
However on a fresh install (i.e. without any proprietary modules using
the preconfig hook ordering) it shouldn't core dump.
I actually discovered the bug because I am developping modules that rely
on a correct execution order of the pre config hook.
I didn't check 2.2.10 (I am still on 2.2.8) but I don't think that
built-in modules rely on pre_config hook ordering.
I can produce a 2.2.10 patch if you need it or if any developer is
willing to fix 45076 issue. It is pretty easy to fix.
Unfortunately I don't think it would solve your issue.
Maybe a linker issue or Cygwin related bug?
