This is still a problem, But I think I figured out what the issue is. apr-util-1.2.12 apache-2.2.6 The apr-util's ./configure will always configure SDBM to compile as the default option, and no matter that --with-db=<dbm> you choose, ./configure will always choose the default, SDBM, as it never recognizes your --with-db input. So I corrected the ./configure so it will configure with gdbm. It still selects the default (not recognizing --with-dbm=) but I changed the default from SDBM to GDBM. With these changes, apr-util compiles successfully with GDBM. Next I compile Apache 2.2, which compiles successfully with this apr-util. I load mod_dav module successfully. When I PUT a file, it looks like it creates the GDBM database files successfully (LockDB and PropsDB), but with 0 zero size. When I perform another PUT and it attempts to access the GDBM files, I get an error about not being able to query the locks. [Wed Dec 19 14:26:44 2007] [error] [client 2.1.1.1] The locks could not be queried for verification against a possible "If:" header. [500, #0] [Wed Dec 19 14:26:44 2007] [error] [client 2.1.1.1] (11)Resource temporarily unavailable: Item not found [500, #15] Then I went back and added a flag GDBM_NOLOCK to the gdbm_open function in dbm/apr_dbm_gdbm.c, to make GDBM never lock (flock) the GDBM files. With these changes, apr-util compiles successfully with GDBM and the flag GDBM_NOLOCK. When I start apache 2.2 and perform a PUT, I get the same error about not being able to query the locks in the LockDB file. It looks like mod_dav/mod_dav_fs inherits the database format from apr-util. And with apr-util always selecting SDBM, regardless of what we choose with ./configure --with-db=<dbm>, as the default dbm and it works. When I fix this apr-util issue so it uses the dbm I choose, gdbm, mod_dav_fs/mod_dav doesn't work with dbm files. I want to think that mod_dav_fs was only able to be tested to support SDBM, and not any other format like GDBM, although I see all the gdbm libraries in the dav/main directory when compiling Apache 2.2. Do I have to change something in Apache 2.2 to also get mod_dav_fs/mod_dav to use the gdbm database type when gdbm is the default for apr-util? Can anyone provide any information? -RG Russell E Glaue wrote: > How would I configure/compile Apache 2.2/mod_dav to use the old dbm format for > property database files, as opposed to using the sdbm/gdbm/db formats? > > I already compiled and installed apr-util with --with-db=dbm, but mod_dav > continues to use SDBM/GDBM. > > -RG > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project. > See <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/userslist.html> for more info. > To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > " from the digest: users-digest-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > For additional commands, e-mail: users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
