Hello everyone...I'm fairly new at setting up linux applications, so please bear with me here.
I'm trying to get apache running on a arm9 processor. The operating system on this processor doesn't have any of the normal libraries, and there isn't much room. So, whatever I install has to be statically compiled and as small as possible.
I think I've figured out how to get the configure script to use the cross compiler, and I've sorted out a few problems along the way. The configure, make, and make install commands now all work without reporting any errors.
However, when I try to run httpd on the arm board, I get the same message that results if a progam is not compiled with the -static tag. (./httpd: No such file or directory - when the file definitely exists)
I understand that the problem could be with the cross compiler (already fixed a few of those last week). However, I'd like to rule out any stupid mistakes I may be making :) I'm currently trying to get it to compile statically by entering the following commands before running configure:
export CFLAGS="-static" export LDFLAGS="-static"Is there anything else I should be doing? The -static tag shows up on every compile line when make is run, including the one for httpd itself.
Also, the file is currently about 4 MB, which is pretty large. I imagine it will get larger if I am successful in getting it to be static. Is there any way to reduce the size of the final executable?
