This may turn out to be a bash bug but I thought I would start here. I'm trying to run the configure script for httpd. It calls the configure script for srclib/apr-util. I'm running AIX 5.3. I have tried bash 3.2 with patches as of December of 2008. I just tried again with bash-3.2.48. I also have gawk installed but I do not have GNU's sed (I mention that because GCC seems to require both) The apr-util configure script is being called: $ /usr/local/src/httpd-2.2.11/srclib/apr-util/configure --disable- option-checking --enable-mods-shared=most --enable-ssl --with-ldap -- enable-authnz-ldap --enable-ldap --with-ssl=/usr/local/ssl --enable- proxy=shared --with-dbm=db47 --with-berkeley-db=/usr/local/BerkeleyDB. 4.7 --cache-file=/dev/null --srcdir=/usr/local/src/httpd-2.2.11/srclib/ apr-util --with-apr=../apr --prefix=/usr/local/apache2 --exec-prefix=/ usr/local/apache2 --libdir=${prefix}/lib --includedir=/usr/local/ apache2/include --bindir=${prefix}/bin The syntax error I get is: checking style of ldap_set_rebind_proc routine... three /usr/local/src/httpd-2.2.11/srclib/apr-util/configure: line 19709: syntax error near unexpected token `|' /usr/local/src/httpd-2.2.11/srclib/apr-util/configure: line 19709: ` * \"* | *\`* | *\\*) ac_try_echo=\$ac_try;;' configure failed for srclib/apr-util I have tried an in-tree build as well as an out of tree build. The reason I think that it may be a bash error is AIX's native ksh can run the script clean. I'm happy to help out debugging this but I never understood the autogen stuff very much.
