The following page has been changed by sjorge: http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/Win32SourceConversion The comment on the change is: cleanup with help of noodl ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ## I (sjorge) gather this information from wrowe on IRC and via mail a while ago and had it on my site (blackdot.be) for a while. ## I here by donate this tutorial to the apache httpd wiki. == Introduction == + Before compiling Apache HTTPD on the Windows platform certain conversions to the source code need to be made. This guide details the steps required. - I've been compiling httpd for quite a while now, if you are using unix, linux or Mac OS X you have nothing to worry about. - The provided tarballs work without any modification. If you are on windows however... you need to convert them. + This conversion is only needed if the '''httpd-2.x.x-win32-src.zip''' isn't available on the mirror. - Why would you want to do that? Good question! - - The reason being there isn't a Windows tarball available for trunk and Win32 releases take a few days after official releases to appear. == Requirements == 1.
