Re: 64 Bit Apache httpd on Solaris

[Kevin.Friswell@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Thanks Eugene, I used some of your ideas
for "inspiration".

My final solution was
        LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/64:/usr/sfw/lib/64
        export
LD_LIBRARY_PATH
        CFLAGS=”-m64”
        export
CFLAGS
        LDFLAGS=”-m64”
        export
LDFLAGS

        ./configure
--prefix=/usr/local/apache2
        make
        make
install

        file
httpd
        httpd:
         ELF 64-bit MSB executable SPARCV9 Version
1, dynamically linked, not stripped, no debugging information available

I don't know which, if any, of the above
settings are necessary/unnecessary. I'm a bit curious but don't really
have the budget to play around.
One trap though in case any other newbies
are interested : after a failed attempt, remove the http installation directory
and untar the installation
download afresh. I got caught out with
that one - there were 32bit ".o" files that were not being clobbered
and were stuffing the make up.

Thanks again.

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

The Goal
A 64bithttpd executable on Solaris 5.10,  (independent of the "out
of the box Solaris Apache server). 

(isainfo –v 
        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. 

Cheers All 
Kevin F.
