The Goal
A 64bit httpd executable on Solaris 5.10, (independent of the "out of the
box Solaris Apache server).
(isainfo ?v
64-bit sparcv9 applications
fmaf vis2 vis popc
32-bit sparc applications
fmaf vis2 vis popc v8plus div32 mul32 )
Current Postion
A 32bit httpd executable on Solaris 5.10. -->
/usr/local/apache2/bin > file httpd
httpd: ELF 32-bit MSB executable SPARC Version 1,
dynamically linked, not stripped
Steps Taken
1) Download httpd-2.2.17.tar.gz and copy to Solaris server. (
http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi)
Nothing I could find at the download site about a 32bit/64bit
download - so I assume this is
determined at configuration/compilation time and there's just the
one download for both setups.
2) Follow instructions in httpd-2.2.17\INSTALL document. Install
into /usr/local/apache2
Nothing in the instructions matching search strings "64", "32" or
"bit".
Check http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/install.html -- same
result
Run httpd-2.2.17 > ./configure --help ... no sign of anything in
the help options about configure 32 or 64 bit.
3) Search apache.org website - some instruction about Win64 but
nothing useful for Solaris.
Google - used key words/phrases such as "compiling 64 bit
solaris", "Apache 64 bit Solaris", "Apache 64bit CFLAGS"
"CFLAGS syntax"
I found a few reasonable matches, but at best the sites either
give me a better general understanding
of this stuff, or they show some compile options that result in
errors, (not much use).
Where to go from here
Obviously this stuff is not my primary area of expertise, but my hunch is
that this "problem" might have a fairly simple solution - perhaps
a compiler option or something, but be stuffed if I can find it. If
someone would be kind enough to help me along a bit with this it would be
greatly appreciated.
Cheers All
