I compile Httpd with SunStudio using options: CC=cc \ CFLAGS="-fast -xO4 -mt -xtarget=generic -m64 -DSSL_EXPERIMENTAL -DSSL_ENGINE" \ CXX=$CC \ CXXFLAGS="$CFLAFS" \ LDFLAGS="-xtarget=generic -m64 -L/usr/sfw/lib/64 -L/usr/lib/64 -R/usr/sfw/lib/64 -R/usr/lib/64" \ GREP=grep \ ./configure \ ## here is the set of httpd configuration options ## "-m64" turns 64-bit on -----Original Message----- From: Kevin.Friswell@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <Kevin.Friswell@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Reply-to: "users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" <users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: 64 Bit Apache httpd on Solaris Date: Mon, 7 Feb 2011 04:00:37 +0000 The Goal A 64bithttpd executable on Solaris 5.10, (independent of the "out of the box Solaris Apache server). (isainfo âv 64-bit sparcv9 applications fmaf vis2 vis popc 32-bit sparc applications fmaf vis2 vis popc v8plus div32 mul32 ) Current Postion A 32bithttpd executable on Solaris 5.10. --> /usr/local/apache2/bin > file httpd httpd: ELF 32-bit MSB executable SPARC Version 1, dynamically linked, not stripped Steps Taken 1) Download httpd-2.2.17.tar.gz and copy to Solaris server. (http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi) Nothing I could find at the download site about a 32bit/64bit download - so I assume this is determined at configuration/compilation time and there's just the one download for both setups. 2) Follow instructions in httpd-2.2.17\INSTALL document. Install into /usr/local/apache2 Nothing in the instructions matching search strings "64", "32" or "bit". Checkhttp://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/install.html -- same result Run httpd-2.2.17 > ./configure --help ... no sign of anything in the help options about configure 32 or 64 bit. 3) Search apache.org website - some instruction about Win64 but nothing useful for Solaris. Google - used key words/phrases such as "compiling 64 bit solaris", "Apache 64 bit Solaris", "Apache 64bit CFLAGS" "CFLAGS syntax" I found a few reasonable matches, but at best the sites either give me a better general understanding of this stuff, or they show some compile options that result in errors, (not much use). Where to go from here Obviously this stuff is not my primary area of expertise, but my hunch is that this "problem" might have a fairly simple solution - perhaps a compiler option or something, but be stuffed if I can find it. If someone would be kind enough to help me along a bit with this it would be greatly appreciated.
