Re: Problem compiling Apache httpd from source code on Linux (Apache Users)

Thanks Jeff. Workaround let me build httpd2.4.4.

Just one question :- What would not work with installed httpd having SCTP not installed?

You won't miss anything.

APR has some limited SCTP support, but nothing in httpd utilizes it.

Today, I tired the httpd version 2.4.4 version with latest apr/apr-util source code in the srclib folder and this time as well it hanged while "checking for SCTP ....".

Is there any workaround/solution to this problem?

This should work around the problem:

Invoke configure with envvar apr_cv_sctp=no, as in

export apr_cv_sctp=no
./configure ...

or

apr_cv_sctp=no ./configure ...

"make distclean" before you invoke configure again

Sorry for not providing the version of httpd.

I am using httpd.2.2.24, I have downloaded the APR and APR-UTIL, but didn't put in the srclib as this folder was already having these inside it.

But I tried compiling the APR standalone and encountered the same problem. Then I did at once tried putting inside the srclib folder and found this issue.

Please let me know if some more information is required.

Hi All,

I have been facing problem while compiling HTTPD on my linux machine. It hangs at the following location while configuration :-

........
........
checking whether TCP_NODELAY and TCP_CORK can both be enabled... yes
checking for TCP_CORK in netinet/tcp.h... yes
checking for TCP_NOPUSH in netinet/tcp.h... no
checking for SO_ACCEPTFILTER in sys/socket.h... no
checking whether SCTP is supported...

I am configuring it using the following switches :-

./configure --with-included-apr

uname -r returns :-

2.6.18-194.el5

Can some one please suggest on how to build it ?

Thanks
Sarbjit

You don't tell us what version of httpd.
if it is 2.4.4, using --with-included-apr have you actually downloaded apr and apr-util and put them in srclib ?
