Hello, I usual make packages of HTTPD by myself for my Solaris 10 systems. After successful compilation I do "DESTDIR=$TMPDIR gmake install" and then make a package from the temporary dir. In HTTPD 2.2.17 DESTDIR doesn't work throwing following error: $ DESTDIR=$TMPDIR gmake install ...bunch lines skipped... gmake[3]: Entering directory `/SOURCESDIR/httpd-2.2.17/srclib/apr-util/xml/expat' /bin/bash ./conftools/mkinstalldirs /PREFIXDIR/lib /PREFIXDIR/include mkdir /PREFIXDIR/include mkdir: Failed to make directory "/PREFIXDIR/include"; Permission denied gmake[3]: *** [installlib] Error 2 gmake[3]: Leaving directory `/SOURCESDIR/httpd-2.2.17/srclib/apr-util/xml/expat' gmake[2]: *** [install] Error 2 gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/SOURCESDIR/httpd-2.2.17/srclib/apr-util' gmake[1]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/SOURCESDIR/httpd-2.2.17/srclib' gmake: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 PREFIXDIR is the value of "--prefix" key of configure. PREFIXDIR is a directory where unprivileged user can't write. My investigation pointed that srclib/apr-util/xml/expat/Makefile.in of HTTPD 2.2.17 doesn't have DESTDIR in places where DESTDIR present in srclib/apr-util/xml/expat/lib/Makefile.in of HTTPD 2.2.16. Is that a bug or feature? If that matter, I use Sun Studio 12 and Solaris 10 environment to build HTTPD. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
