Hi

I have problem compiling apache. I have tried release 2.2.8 and 2.2.6. In
both releases I get an error saying that they compiler can't read a
/usr/lib/libexpat.so could not read symbols: File in wring format. Wrong
format or some thing. DOes this has to do with the fact tha I'm using a 64
bit version of Fedora 6?

I configure using
[root@localhost httpd.2.2.6]#./configure --prefix=/www

Make
[root@localhost httpd.2.2.6]#make

Error Message

/usr/lib/libexpat.so: could not read symbols: File in wrong format
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[3]: *** [libaprutil-1.la] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/root/tools/httpd-2.2.6/srclib/apr-util'

make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/tools/httpd-2.2.6/srclib/apr-util'

PLease

Mostly that the file is corrupted or simply wrongly installed.
I suggest you ask in the developer forum.

HI

Well there is so much problems with the Fedora 6 version I'm using so I'm
thinking of installing another Linux version. Maybe SUSE or Debian. One
Linux guru that I know recommended Debian another SUSE. As long as one of
them include a X11 system to maintain the server from it's OK with me.

What I would like to install is some thing that I never have exeprienced in
Linux. An install where every thing works after install. Network, Webserver
(Apache), MySQL, PHP, emacs, compilers, ASP.NET. There's always a lot of
shit when you install Linux. Yes Linux is a good OS byt a pain in the but to
install. Just the fact that I can't install Fedore 5,7 or 8 because it
doesn't support my SATA RADI system. My Windows XP installs was easy to
insatll, no problem at all. But Linux, no. It's as if Linux is designed only
to be installed by gurus. But as they say, more chefs makes worse soup.

This is not a linux group, if you're uncomfortable with Linux maybe
you shouldn't use it.

When installing apache I would do it this way:

../configure --prefix=/www --with-expat=builtin

If you are going to be using ssl, make sure you compile that in too...

../configure --prefix=/www --with-expat=builtin --enable-ssl

This may not work as libtool is a 32bit library. As a quick work around you
could temporarily substitute the 64 bit libraries libexpat.* in /usr/lib64
for the 32 bit libraries in /usr/lib. This doesnt solve the problem, its
just a temp workaround.

HI

But it was apache that was failing. Isn't this a group to you find
errors related to apache? If I'm comfortable or not with Linux has nothing
to do with the fact that I'm using it. Linux is good for some things like a
webserver. However I don't recoment you to use Linux for audio production
due to lack of software. Foa audio production use a Windows XP PC or a MAC.
Sure thare are a buch of free programs to use that can rip CDs record audio
but so far I haven't seen any ting for professional audio production used in
studios.


Yours
Lars

Hi

Thanks, now it works in firefos to type http://127.0.0.1

--with-expat=builtin
Was the thing that ed me

Now I need to set up the firewall properly.
Don't remeber weather to us 192.168.0.xxx or 127.0.0.1. But the old confog
file I use us backuped on a USB hard drive, I'll check there.

Lars, what is it that you are attempting to do, just serve webpages? When
you say you need to open up firewall rules, do you mean for apache,
sendmail, pop etc...? How familiar are you with linux and installing
programs or basic linux administration?

Let me know.

Thanks
Jim
