[J-T-C] Building mod_jk for Apache 2.0/Windows
I'd like to start experimenting with Tomcat and Apache 2.0. The Apache 2.0
code in the tomcat_32 branch appears to be quite out of date. I tried
building the stuff in j-t-c, but the .dsp file won't load in DevStudio 6 and
I don't have the libtools stuff for doing a command line build.
If someone could give me some pointers on getting this building on the Win32
platform (I've got cygwin) I'd appreciate it. Also, once I've got a build
environment, is there anyplace I can lend a hand?

Thanks, that document talks about using the .dsp files to build Apache on
Win32. What I'm really interested in is being able to build using the UNIX
style scripts. I hate DevStudio. I use the cygwin tools and bash for all
my normal Windows stuff so if I could do the "./buildconf.sh, ./configure,
make" approach I would be much happier.

FWIW, OtherBill (aka Will Rowe) just added:
httpd-2.0/docs/manual/platform/win_compiling.html
Maybe that will help. I don't use Win32, but I bet that if you find
any improvements, we'd appreciate the patches. -- justin

It probably isn't a big deal now. I've got the .dsp file working now. Once
I'm satisfied everything is OK I'll commit the changes and also export a
Windows makefile so that I can build without using the damned IDE.

That is possible - But that means to commit some automake generated files or to

Ah, that's jk-specific. It might be a good idea to try to remove the
automake dependency if at all possible as we don't require it for
httpd. All of the others are required for Apache 2.0.
Pier has a good build system with 2.0 for mod_webapp. =) -- justin

I'll grab the latest CVS and see how that works.
The buildconf.sh in jk/native/Apache-2.0 runs libtoolize, automake, aclocal
and autoconf. Cygwin includes all of these except libtool. I built it and
installed it into /usr/local/bin and bad things happened. I put it into
/usr/bin and things ran fine.

Please don't use Apache 2.0.16. Use the latest version from CVS.
Also, I'm not sure where automake is coming from - we don't use that.
Perhaps, you mean autoconf? We also revamped the build system well
after the 2.0.16 timeframe. Hopefully, things might be smoother
with the latest version. -- justin

Nope, no error messages. The first thing I ran into was that WIN32 needs to
be defined for Win32 compiles. I manually added that to CFLAGS in all the
generated Makefiles and things got further, but there were still problems (I
don't recall exactly what at the moment). At that point I decided to give
up and work on the .dsp file.

Any error messages from automake? - I will try at home with winnt -

RE: [J-T-C] Update: Building mod_jk for Apache 2.0/Windows
Posted by Marc Saegesser <ma...@apropos.com>.
Here's an update on where I stand right now on building/running mod_jk for
Apache 2.0 beta 16.
I spent a considerable amount of time on the automake route. Cygwin doesn't
include libtool by default so I had to download and build that. I then ran
into an odd build problem that turned out to be caused by having installed
my new libtool stuff into a different directory then where automake was
already installed. Once I fixed that I was able to run ./buildconf.sh and
./configure on Win2000/Cygwin.
This comes close to working, but still misses some things. I don't know
enough yet about the autmake stuff to deal with this right now. Maybe I'll
get back to it again later.
I then took a deeper look at the mod_jk.dsp file. I discovered that some
hand edits a while back broke the file's structure. Once I fixed those up I
was able to load the .dsp into Dev Studio. Several of the include and
library paths have changed in 2.0 beta 16 so I had to fix those up. I now
have an environment that builds mod_jk for apache 1.0 beta 16! I'll commit
these changes later today.
Now I'm getting some odd behaviour when I use the module. The request seems
to be forwarded to Tomcat and the response comes back, but it doesn't appear
in the browser. I use telnet to issue the request I get back what looks
like a valid response. I'll investigate this later today.
