RE: httpd-2.4.2 "make install" fails on AIX 6.1 (Apache Users)

Hi Brian,

I ran into this same problem just a week ago, if I knew more about mailing lists and how to update a Wiki I’d be able to refer you to the email I sent In about it.

The problem went away for me when I set up my execution path so that the ‘which install’ command found the GNU CoreUtils install program in /opt/freeware/bin (I think) instead of the AIX one in /usr/bin. You may need to re-run the configure script so the GNU install program gets picked out then.

Yours,

George Reimer

I have similar problem to the problem described here: http://grokbase.com/t/apache/dev/11cva03wa7/httpd-2-3-16-beta-make-install-fails

I have coreutils and libtools installed.

I have successfully compiled apr and apr-utils as follows:

# Build and install apr

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apr-httpd/

make

make install

# Build and install apr-util

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apr-util-httpd/ --with-apr=/usr/local/apr-httpd/ --with-openssl --with-crypto --with-ldap --with-expat=/usr

make

make install

# Configure httpd

./configure --with-apr=/usr/local/apr-httpd/ --with-apr-util=/usr/local/apr-util-httpd/ \

--with-mpm=prefork \

--enable-auth-basic \

--enable-auth-form \

--enable-authn-anon \

--enable-authn-dbm \

--enable-auth-digest \

--enable-authnz-ldap \

--enable-cern-meta \

--enable-dav \

--enable-dav-fs \

--enable-dbd \

--enable-deflate \

--enable-expires \

--enable-ext-filter \

--enable-headers \

--enable-info \

--enable-ldap \

--enable-mime-magic \

--enable-proxy \

--enable-rewrite \

--enable-session \

--enable-session-cookie \

--enable-session-crypto \

--enable-session-dbd \

--enable-speling \

--enable-ssl \

--enable-unique-id \

--enable-usertrack \

--enable-vhost-alias \

--enable-mods-shared="auth-basic auth-form authn_anon authn_dbm auth_digest authnz-ldap cern_meta dav dav_fs dbd deflate expires ext_filter headers info ldap mime_magic proxy rewrite session session-cookie session-crypto session-dbd ssl speling unique_id usertrack vhost_alias"

make is successful.

make install fails with this error:
