Re: compiling troubles on Solaris 8
As an aside, Solaris 8 comes with prebuilt versions of Apache and mod_perl, does anyone familiar with HP-UX, AIX, or IRIX know whether this is true of these platforms as well? Whether they are DSO mod_perl or not would also be helpful. HP-UX doesn't consider Perl a supportable piece of software, nor Apache. Needless to say, it doesn't come prebuilt. The compiler that comes w/the os isn't ansii compliant and is only good for rebuilding the kernel (but hey, you can buy HP's ansii c compiler for only a few thousand dollars!). We ended up building a gnu development environment in order to build mod_Perl. We could not get it to work as a DSO :(. Once we got everything up and running, it's a decent enough platform.

The problem is that when perl is configured and built, it saves the compiler name and flags in Config.pm. Well OK, read What Compiler Should Be Used to Build mod_perl? in the install section of Stas' new book if you want to use different compilers - but don't say I didn't warn you! :) 73, Ged.

compiling troubles on Solaris 8
Hello, I am trying to build mod_perl 1.26 and Apache 1.3.20 on my Solaris 8 box. I have installed the additional CD with the developer tools including the gnu utilities and gcc. When I first started, it did not seem to be using gcc, so I renamed /usr/ucb/cc to cc.default, and make /usr/ucb/cc a link to gcc. That seemed to get me further. However, I have reached a fatal error, and don't have a clue what this means. The error messages are quoted below. I am trying to do the simplest build possible, following the INSTALL instructions. So after unzipping and untarring apache and mod_perl, from within the mod_perl distribution directory, I type perl Makefile.PL I confirm that I want it build from ../apache_1.3.20/src, and that I want to store the new httpd in that directory. Then I type make. After a bit, I get this: mkdir ../blib/arch/auto/Apache/Leak mkdir ../blib/lib/auto/Apache/Leak cp Leak.pm ../blib/lib/Apache/Leak.pm /bin/perl -I/usr/perl5/5.00503/sun4-solaris -I/usr/perl5/5.00503 /usr/perl5/5.00 503/ExtUtils/xsubpp -typemap /usr/perl5/5.00503/ExtUtils/typemap -typemap typem ap Leak.xs xstmp.c mv xstmp.c Leak.c cc -c -xO3 -xdepend -DVERSION=\1.00\ -DXS_VERSION=\1.00\ -KPIC -I/usr /perl5/5.00503/sun4-solaris/CORE -DSOLARIS2=280 -DUSE_EXPAT -I/lib/expat-lite -D NO_DL_NEEDED Leak.c cc: unrecognized option `-KPIC' cc: language depend not recognized cc: Leak.c: linker input file unused since linking not done Running Mkbootstrap for Apache::Leak () chmod 644 Leak.bs LD_RUN_PATH= cc -o ../blib/arch/auto/Apache/Leak/Leak.so -G Leak.o cc: Leak.o: No such file or directory cc: No input files *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `../blib/arch/auto/Apache/Leak/Leak .so' Current working directory /home/paul/mod_perl-1.26/Leak *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `subdirs' I have no idea what is wrong, or how to fix it, so I would appreciate any help. thanks! ___ Paul Phillips Director of Orchestral Activities, Meadows School of the Arts Southern Methodist University You must sing every note you play, sing even through the rests!

Re: compiling troubles on Solaris 8
Sun wants to sell you it's Forte for C (formerly known as the Sun Workshop compiler). There's a hundred reasons to use the sun compiler over gcc, and one pretty big reason why you you don't want to use it. If you can get it into your budget, by all means go for the real Sun compiler. It generates code that is highly optimized for sparc hardware, particularly if you are running multiple processors. If nothing else, request a time limited demo license from Sun so you can build mod_perl (and every other module you think you'll ever need off of CPAN).
