Re: Trouble with Makefile.PL

So, digging deeper, it turns out that the problem here is with Apache2::Build in which the following code exists:

unless (($mpm_name and $self->httpd_is_source_tree)) {
        if ($self->dir) {
            my $config_vars_file = catfile $self->dir,
                "build", "config_vars.mk";
            if (open my $fh, $config_vars_file) {
                while (<$fh>) {
                    if (/MPM_NAME = (\w+)/) {
                        $mpm_name = $1;
                        last;
                    }
                }
                close $fh;
            }
        }
    }

However if you look at config_vars.mk... There is no MPM_NAME attribute set. Only
MPM_SUBDIRS = event
MPM_LIB = server/mpm/event/libevent.la
(yes it's not consistent with the below… these are defaults, just to see what the ./configure script without an mpm declaration would yield)

So, what's up with ./configure and Apache2::Build?? Any ideas? I'm going to change Apache2::Build for now and see if that yields any fruit in getting the mpm name.



Thanks,

Subject: Trouble with Makefile.PL

Hello all,

I'm having a lot of trouble trying to statically build mod_perl and apache on Solaris 10 Sparc. I get the following error when I try and build statically:

Configuring Apache/2.4.2 mod_perl/2.0.5 Perl/v5.12.3
[  error] Failed to obtain the MPM name. Please specify MP_APXS=/full/path/to/apxs to solve this problem.


Here is the command I am using:

CC=`which gcc` CPP="`which gcc` -E" perl Makefile.PL MP_AP_PREFIX=$HOME/httpd-2.4.2 MP_USE_STATIC=1 MP_AP_CONFIGURE=" \
--prefix=/cms/usr/local/www \
--with-ssl=/opt/mlb \
--enable-static-support \
--enable-mods-shared='most' --with-mpm=prefork \
--enable-mods-static='perl ssl so prefork cgi' \

`which gcc` yields: /usr/local/bin/gcc
It's version :
Reading specs from /usr/local/lib/gcc/sparc-sun-solaris2.10/3.4.6/specs
Configured with: ../configure --with-as=/usr/ccs/bin/as --with-ld=/usr/ccs/bin/ld --enable-shared --enable-languages=c,c++,f77
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.4.6

Perl –V compiler section:
Compiler:
    cc='gcc -B/usr/ccs/bin/', ccflags ='-fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -I/usr/local/include -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64',
    optimize='-O',
    cppflags='-fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -I/usr/local/include'
    ccversion='', gccversion='3.4.6', gccosandvers='solaris2.10'
    intsize=4, longsize=4, ptrsize=4, doublesize=8, byteorder=4321
    d_longlong=define, longlongsize=8, d_longdbl=define, longdblsize=16
    ivtype='long', ivsize=4, nvtype='double', nvsize=8, Off_t='off_t', lseeksize=8
    alignbytes=8, prototype=define


Any ideas? I don't have apache currently installed and the docs said I didn't need it. However this would indicate that I would.

Many thanks in advance.

Carl Furst
