Re: building httpd 2.4 on windows x64 (Apache Users)

I've given up trying to figure out how to do this with visual studio in a reproducible fashion and started looking at cmake.

Has anyone had any luck building
httpd (2.4.12 is what I'm using) with the following dependencies using cmake:
openssl
zlib
pcre
apr
and apr-util?

I'm able to build zlib, pcre, openssl, and apr and have them installed into C:\Apache24
but I'm stuck on apr-util. It's looking for openssl but I don't know how to tell it to find the openssl that I've installed into C:\Apache24.

I've tried setting the OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR environment variable (it looks like Cmake is trying to use that) but no luck. Anyone have any luck with this?

I need to use our own openssl build and can't depend on a third party build (which it looks like cmake wil attempt to find).

Thanks,
Andy

I need to update apr-util's README.cmake file with this blurb from httpd. Does this fix your issue?

OpenSSL

-------

If you have a binary install of OpenSSL in a well-known directory (e.g.,

%HOME%\OpenSSL-Win64) and you wish to build httpd against a different

install of OpenSSL, the cmake build may unexpectedly select OpenSSL

libraries in the well-known directory even if the expected include files

are used. Check the cmake output from your httpd build to confirm that

the expected OpenSSL libraries and include files are used.

The cmake FindOpenSSL module searches for OpenSSL libraries in a "VC"

subdirectory of the OpenSSL install with filenames that indicate the build

type (e.g., "<PREFIX>/lib/VC/ssleay32MD.lib"); defining CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH

or OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR or even OPENSSL_LIBRARIES does not circumvent finding

these libraries.

To work around this issue, rename the well-known OpenSSL directory while

building httpd. Let us know if you find a better solution.
