Apache building problem with libexpat

silviu · #1 16th February 2009, 09:44 AM

I'm trying to build apache-2.2.6 on Fedora 10 i386 with the following options :

Code:

 ./configure  --enable-proxy --enable-proxy-http --enable-proxy-ajp --enable-proxy-balancer --enable-ssl --enable-rewrite --disable-autoindex --enable-headers --enable-expires --enable-deflate --enable-auth-digest

make exit with the following error:

Code:

libtool: link: cannot find the library `/usr/lib64/libexpat.la'

Hi silviu. Trying to understand you build error. Is it telling you that there is no libtool installed or is it looking for libexpat. It wouldn't hurt to make sure that libtool is installed. Try sudo yum install libtool and then try the build again.

Ha! Found this. You may need to install one or more of these also.

Code:

Its seems to be installed:

Code:

rpm -qa | grep libtool
libtool-ltdl-1.5.26-4.fc10.i386
libtool-1.5.26-4.fc10.i386


rpm -qa | grep expat
expat-devel-2.0.1-5.i386
compat-expat1-1.95.8-4.i386
expat-2.0.1-5.i386

I think that something is wrong with "/usr/lib64/" on an i386 system.I tried to compile with "--with-expat=buildin" option and make execution is terminated with the same error.

Where did you get the apache-2.2.6 file?

silviu · #6 16th February 2009, 10:35 AM

There is no problem with sources.Archive is downloaded from httpd.apache.org and I tried different versions from 2.2.X branch.

Try rebuilding this srpm , you can edit the spec file with your customized options.
