Hi!

I'm facing a problem installing Apache 2.3.8 on Ubuntu.

You are aware of the fact, that this is the current alpha
release?

I followed the instructions given on
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/install.html. -

While this is documentation for the current stable.
Sadly, the apr part of the compile procedure has been
removed from the documentation.

# Build and install apr 1.2

I'm not sure if 1.2 is supported at all by alpha.
I strongly suggest to download -deps.tar.bz2
http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi#apache23

If you unpack these deps in the same directory as the
httpd-2.3.8.tar.bz2, they will end up in
httpd-2.3.8/src-lib/apr*

Then configure with:

While installing Apache as it is, i.e. using ./configure
--with-included-apr, I get the following error -


configuring package in xml/expat now

The line mentioned in the error is -

lt_if_append_uniq(lt_decl_varnames, SHELL, , ,
     lt_dict_add_subkey([lt_decl_dict], [SHELL], [libtool_name],
	[m4_ifval([], [], [SHELL])])
     lt_dict_add_subkey([lt_decl_dict], [SHELL], [value], [1])
     m4_ifval([Shell to use when invoking shell scripts],
	[lt_dict_add_subkey([lt_decl_dict], [SHELL], [description], [Shell
to
use when invoking shell scripts])])
     lt_dict_add_subkey([lt_decl_dict], [SHELL],
	[tagged?], [m4_ifval([], [yes], [no])]))


Please tell me how to fix this. Thanks in advnace!

Do you have all the necessary tools installed, as mentioned in
the installation documentation? m4, libtool, autoconf, automake

Do you have all the basic dependencies installed?
For expat in Ubuntu this would be libexpat1-dev, as Ubuntu doesn't
install headerfiles by default.

etc..

In addition to the above: there have been several libtool related fixes to the build process in the meantime. If you retry with 2.3.8, use APR 1.4.2 and APU 1.3.10. Versions 1.2 are older than what we bundle with recent 2.2 releases.

We tried to release 2.3.9 as beta, but it failed, mostly because of Windows related build failures. We expect to vote on a 2.3.10 in the not to distinct future. So if you want to experiment and can wait a bit I suggest you wait for the 2.3.10. Note that 2.3.10 will still not be a production release.

Regards,

Rainer
