Apache 2.2.8 Windows Compile Issue/Failure

["Stusynski, Dan" <dstusynski@xxxxxxx>]

Hello all,

 

Hopefully someone can provide guidance or has seen this problem before since google didn't dredge up anything useful.

 

During my Win XP build of Apache 2.2.8 using MSCV++ 6.0 I've run across an issue I can't immediately resolve.

 

The build fails towards the end of the build when the file <apache_src_dir>/build/installwinconf.awk gets invoked, the compile fails with the following error:

 

D:\apache_builds\windows_M030\httpd-2.2.8>(copy docs\conf\mime.types "\Apache22\conf\original\mime.types"   0<.y )
        1 file(s) copied.
 awk -f build\installwinconf.awk example.com www.example.com  admin@xxxxxxxxxxx 80 443 "\Apache22 " docs/conf/
awk: build\installwinconf.awk:49: fatal: can't redirect to `/Apache22/logs/install.log' (No such file or directory)
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'awk' : return code '0x2'
Stop.
Error executing NMAKE.

httpd.exe - 1 error(s), 10 warning(s)

 

 

It can't find logs/install.log since it doesn't exist in the directory after checking. If I comment out the print statements (or remove the piping into the install.log) in the installwinconf.awk, and rebuild I get a subsequent error:

 

 

D:\apache_builds\windows_M030\httpd-2.2.8>(copy docs\conf\mime.types "\Apache22\conf\original\mime.types"   0<.y )
        1 file(s) copied.

NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'awk' : return code '0x2'
Stop.
Error executing NMAKE.

httpd.exe - 1 error(s), 10 warning(s)

 

A quick check shows that `/Apache22/conf/original/extra/httpd-autoindex.conf' doens't exist either. However, the file /Apache22/conf/extra/httpd-autoindex.conf does exist, and appears (using a quick check) to have the correct values where the tokens are/were. For examle, www.example.com would have replaced the @@servername@@ token.

 

These errors didn't occur with 2.2.6. Any thoughts on how to proceed or resolve this error? Creating dummy files or copying the tokenized source files from <apache_src_dir>/docs/conf/ to this location didn't allow the build to proceed.

 

Any help is appreciated.
