[users@httpd] export.c build errors - many "solutions" found, none worked.

[Brian Mearns <me...@bmearns.net>]

This seems to be a common problem, but none of the solutions I found
online and in mailing list archives helped.

The problem is when running make, and I get many errors about
redefinitions in exports.c like:

exports.c:743: error: redefinition of ‘ap_hack_apr_allocator_create’
exports.c:728: error: previous definition of
‘ap_hack_apr_allocator_create’ was here
exports.c:744: error: redefinition of ‘ap_hack_apr_allocator_destroy’
exports.c:729: error: previous definition of
‘ap_hack_apr_allocator_destroy’ was here
exports.c:745: error: redefinition of ‘ap_hack_apr_allocator_alloc’
exports.c:730: error: previous definition of ‘ap_hack_apr_allocator_alloc’
was here


and on and on. I've already got apache 2.2.6 installed and running, and
now I'm trying 2.2.9. The old version was built from
/usr/local/apache/versions/2.2.6/src, and installed to a sibling folder
/usr/local/apache/versions/2.2.6/installed. Similar set up for the new
version, except obviously in versions/2.2.9 instead of versions/2.2.6.
There are *no symlinks* in this path, but I do have a
/usr/local/apache/current soft linked to /usr/local/apache/versions/2.2.6
(the parent folder for the old version), if that's relevant.

I invoke configure with:
./configure \
--prefix=/usr/local/apache/versions/2.2.9/installed/ \
--with-apr=/usr/local \
--with-apr-util=/usr/local \
--enable-ssl \
--with-ssl=/usr/local/openssl/versions/0.9.8g/installed/ \
--enable-dav --enable-dav-fs --enable-dav-lock

None of the paths there have symlinks either.

I'm also getting this message from configure:
configure: WARNING: Unrecognized options: --with-apr, --with-apr-util,
--enable-ssl, --with-ssl, --enable-dav, --enable-dav-fs, --enable-dav-lock

I tried leaving out the --with-apr and --with-apr-util options and got the
same errors and warnings.

All of the proposed solutions I've found online are that the path contains
symlinks, or that the build is trying to go over an existing installation,
but neither or those apply in this case.

If anyone can help me, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks,
-Brian

Nope, thanks anyway but that's not it either. It's a local drive.

Don't configure on an NFS-mounted filesystem.

If you have only an NFS-mounted home directory at your
disposal, there's always /tmp.  If you need debugging
in your executable to see the source, you may need to
move it after configuring, or play with links.
