gai_strerror not found on RH 5.2 (libc5?)
I'm getting this when I try to build Apache 2.0.* on Red Hat

On RH 6.2, gai_strerror() is in libc.a and libc_p.a. The man pages
indicate that gai_strerror() is a companion to getaddrinfo(), and
it's prototyped in <netdb.h>. It doesn't appear on my 5.2 system
at all.
Has it been decided that APR won't support this environment? A
friendlier way of saying so would be nice.. :-)

It has fixed my problem; I'll get you the details you

[PATCH] Re: gai_strerror not found on RH 5.2 (libc5?)
Posted by Jeff Trawick <tr...@attglobal.net>.
Please try this patch and post
1) the part of configure output that corresponds to this from my
machine:
Checking for IPv6 Networking support...
checking for library containing getaddrinfo... none required
checking for library containing gai_strerror... none required
checking for library containing getnameinfo... none required
checking for gai_strerror... yes
checking for working getaddrinfo... yes
checking for negative error codes for getaddrinfo... yes
checking for working getnameinfo... yes
checking for sockaddr_in6... yes
checking if APR supports IPv6... yes
2) whether or not HAVE_GETADDRINFO is in apr_private.h
3) whether or not your build works (and if not, how does it fail)
Thanks,
Jeff

Well, yes, it's there -- as long as I elide the '/private/'
segment from the path..

'need to not consider it usable' -- in other words, if there's no
gai_strerror(), getaddrinfo() is garbage?
Ta, Jeff!

errorcodes.c assumes that if you have getaddrinfo() you have
gai_strerror().
#if defined(HAVE_GETADDRINFO)
statcode -= APR_OS_START_EAIERR;
#if defined(NEGATIVE_EAI)
statcode = -statcode;
#endif
return stuffbuffer(buf, bufsize, gai_strerror(statcode));
#else
return stuffbuffer(buf, bufsize, "APR does not understand this
error code");
#endif
Can you verify that getaddrinfo() exists and that
HAVE_GETADDRINFO is defined in
srclib/apr/include/private/arch/unix/apr_private.h pretty please?
(I assume it is there, but I just want to double-check.)
We already do some sanity-checking of getaddrinfo() before deciding to
use it. Probably we need to not consider that getaddrinfo() is usable
if there is no gai_strerror(). If you can verify that you really have
getaddrinfo() I'll work up a patch for you to test out.

The only environment APR won't support is the environment that has no
crusader (well, pretty much).
