AIX 5.2, Apache 2.0.5, Tomcat 4.1.3, (JK2 compile Issue)

[Ca...@lawson.com]

Hello Everyone,

        I have scowered the the Jakarta message archives, Jakarta 
instructions, internet, blogs, google, yahoo and am at my wits end.

        I have GCC to 3.3.2 release, M4 to 1.4, autoconf to 2.53, libtool 
to 1.4.2, automake 1.5, java1.4 and all IBM patches current.  Made sure 
the 3.3.2 release was on the path as well as all the others installed. 

        I am on a pseries IBM server with AIX 5.2 Maint Level 2, Apache 
2.0.5, and Tomcat 4.1.3  all running just fine.
        I am able to execute the buildconf.sh just fine.  It is the 
./configure statement that I am unable to get past.

        I have tried many different iterations and I am looking for ideas 
here.  Below is the last run with the last command line for configure that 
I have tried.

CC=gcc ./configure --with-apxs2=/web/apache2/bin/apxs 
--with-apr-lib=/web/apache2/lib --with-tomcat-41=/web/tomcat41 
--with-java-home=/usr/java14

./configure[9331]: apr-config:  not found

I am compiling for Apache 2.0.  It even says it is building connector for 
"apache-2.0".

If this is the case why is it reporting a configure error: Apache 1.3 
requires apr to build from source, use --with.........?  It does not make 
sense.   FYI.  I am building this on the same box as a live Apache 1.3.29, 
Tomcat 4.0.6, Java 1.3.1 live configuration.

env that I have to run the command from:

I have a feeling I am not all that far from getting it to compile.  I am 
just not sure where to turn now.

Assistance please as this has me vexed.
